RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Continued Strong Operational Delivery Drives Earnings Growth and Value Creation

Key Highlights

Irish Residential Properties REIT plc (“I-RES” or the “Company”),  the leading provider of rental homes in Ireland, today  issues
its preliminary results for the twelve-month period from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2025.

  • Adjusted Earnings (excluding fair value movements) growth of 7.4% to €32.8 million in 2025 (2024: €30.5 million),  reflecting
    the ongoing success of the asset recycling programme in generating sales premia significantly ahead of book values.
  • Adjusted EPRA Earnings growth of 1.5% for the year. 2.3% growth in adjusted EPRA EPS to 5.6 cent, notwithstanding the sale of
    approximately 3% of units in the portfolio over the last 18 months.
  • Net Rental Income (“NRI”) margin increase of 120 bps in 2025 with a margin of 78.0% (2024: 76.8%) due to our continued  focus
    on operational efficiency and successful implementation of cost management and recovery initiatives.
  • IFRS NAV per share of 131.7 cent, grew by 4.4% (2024: 126.2 cent).
  • Net LTV reduction to 43.6% (2024: 44.4%).
  • Successful debt  refinancing in  H1,  new facilities  in place  for  5 years  with the  option  of two  one-year  extensions.
    Successfully converted to sustainability linked loan in H2.
  • Total Accounting Return (“TAR”) of 8.1% in 2025 (2024: Negative 1.0%).
  • Return of surplus capital to shareholders by way of an accretive share buyback of €5 million in H1.
  • New rental regulation which will take  effect from 1st March 2026, along  with other measures implemented by government  have
    strengthened the outlook for the market and for the business.
  • The business has continued to execute  on its asset recycling programme,  disposing of 41 units in  the period for a gain  of
    €3.4 million versus book value. Proceeds will be directed towards enhancing shareholder value through our capital  allocation
    framework. This  framework includes  exploring opportunities  to grow  our portfolio  through the  acquisition of  new,  high
    quality  assets  to  replace  the units  we  have  sold. Given  the  positive  market dynamics,  the  Company’s  pipeline  of
    opportunities is strong.

 

Eddie Byrne, I-RES’ Chief Executive Officer, said:

“I’m pleased to report that 2025 marked a major  step forward in I-RES’ operational and financial performance, delivering  strong
margin expansion and meaningful earnings growth against the backdrop of our sales programme. We advanced our strategic priorities
at pace, leveraging our operational platform to drive significant  efficiency gains and achieving asset disposals at more than  a
25% premium to book value. Throughout the year, we remained disciplined in our capital allocation decisions, executing on a share
buyback programme,  with  our focus  firmly  on creating  shareholder  value  and managing  LTV.  We are  now  actively  pursuing
re-investment opportunities to enhance the portfolio by investing in higher quality and higher yielding assets. With an improving
regulatory backdrop and market conditions,  we enter 2026 with strong  momentum and clear confidence in  our ability to build  on
this progress. Importantly,  we continue to  play a vital  role in addressing  Ireland’s housing needs  through the provision  of
high-quality, in-demand rental accommodation, supported by a market-leading service offering for our residents.”

Financial and Operational Highlights

  • Achieved incremental earnings growth of 1.5% for the year with adjusted EPRA earnings of €29.4 million (2024: €28.9  million)
    and 2.3% growth in adjusted EPRA EPS to 5.6 cent (2024:  5.5 cent). This growth in earnings was achieved despite the sale  of
    approximately 3% of units in the portfolio over the past 18 months, through our asset recycling programme. Adjusted  Earnings
    (excluding fair value movements) grew by 7.4% to €32.8 million in 2025 (2024: €30.5 million) and reflects the success of  our
    ongoing asset recycling programme in generating sales premia significantly ahead of book values.
  • As a result of the disposals and a low Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (“HICP”) rate in H1, limiting our ability to raise
    rents, revenue increased modestly by 0.2% in 2025 to €85.5 million (2024: €85.3 million).
  • Through continued focus on portfolio optimisation,  Average Monthly Rent (“AMR”) increased  by 2.1% to €1,852 (2024:  €1,814)
    aided by our asset recycling, retrofit programme and focused management of renewals.
  • The portfolio continues to be effectively  fully occupied at 99.5% (31 December  2024: 99.4%) which reflects both our  highly
    effective operating platform and the continued strong underlying demand for high quality rental properties in Dublin.
  • Achieved a significant NRI margin increase of 120  bps year on year, with a 2025  margin of 78.0% (2024: 76.8%). NRI for  the
    period of €66.7  million increased by  1.9% versus  2024. This strong  performance reflects  the intense focus  on costs  and
    successful implementation of cost management and recovery initiatives over the last year building on the momentum achieved in
    H2 2024. We will continue to focus on driving efficiencies in order to sustain the increases achieved.
  • EPRA Earnings of €29.4 million grew by 15.1% vs the prior year of €25.5 million due to the elimination of non-recurring costs
    in 2025 and improved NRI margin.
  • Profit before tax of €49.7  million versus a loss  of €6.7 million in 2024  driven by the fair  value movement of our  assets
    underpinned by the improved operational performance of the assets and stabilised valuation yields in 2025.
  • Successful refinancing of the Revolving Credit Facility (“RCF”) in H1 ensures financial position remains robust, with the new
    facilities in place for 5 years with two one-year extension options. The current weighted average cost of interest across the
    Group’s facilities for 2025 is approximately 3.71%, broadly in line with the Group’s weighted average financing costs in 2024
    (3.79%). In line with our ongoing ESG commitment, we successfully converted the RCF into a Sustainability Linked Loan (“SLL”)
    in November 2025 which ties our financing costs to Sustainability Performance Indicators.
  • The Company completed the disposal of 41 units in 2025  as part of the previously announced asset recycling programme of  315
    units, achieving sales premia in excess  of 25% above book value.  This takes the total number  of units disposed of to  date
    under the programme to 82  marking continued good progress  against the overall target.  Disposals completed during the  year
    generated total gross  proceeds of €16.1  million and a  €3.4 million gain  versus book value.  As at 31  December 2025,  the
    Company had a further 21 units held for sale which we expect to complete in the coming months.

Balance Sheet and Capital Allocation

  • As at 31 December 2025,  I-RES’ portfolio had a total  value of €1,247 million (31  December 2024: €1,232 million)  including
    assets held for sale. This represents a 1.2% increase in the year. Strong organic growth in the performance of the assets has
    delivered valuation increases offset by  the disposal of 41  units as part of our  ongoing asset recycling programme.  Yields
    remained broadly flat in the period with EPRA Net Initial Yield of 5.2% at 31 December 2025 (31 December 2024: 5.1%). We have
    seen a continuation of yield stability in 2025 with valuers’ prime residential yields remaining at 4.75%.
  • We continue to reinvest  in our portfolio of  assets, to ensure we  maintain our exceptional levels  of occupancy and  tenant
    demand, whilst also future proofing our assets. We expect the change in rental regulation, now approved by government to have
    a positive impact on valuations over time. The Group’s portfolio is currently estimated to be 20% under-rented versus  market
    rates. This embeds significant long-term revenue upside in the business without the requirement for a significant increase in
    investment in our assets given our ongoing capex programme.
  • Net LTV at 31 December 2025 stood at 43.6%, reduced from 44.4% at 31 December 2024. Our leverage level remains well below the
    50% maximum allowed by  the Irish REIT regime  and the Group’s debt  financial leverage ratio covenant.  The decrease can  be
    attributed to the increased property valuations and ongoing asset recycling programme offset by the successful completion  of
    the share buyback programme and the upfront transaction costs associated with the refinancing.
  • The Company executed a share  buyback of €5 million in  2025, with approximately 5.1 million  shares purchased at an  average
    price per share of 97.3 cents.
  • Achieved a Total Accounting Return  of 8.1% versus 2024 of  negative 1.0%. The primary drivers  for this performance are  the
    strong recurring dividend paid, the organic growth in our asset portfolio and the gain on disposals.
  • Proceeds from the asset  recycling programme will  be deployed towards continuing  to actively manage  LTV within the  target
    range of 40% to 45%.  Thereafter we will prioritise  excess capital towards enhancing  shareholder value through our  capital
    allocation framework.
  • The Board intends to declare a dividend of 2.53 cents per share, in line with the requirements of Irish REIT legislation  and
    representing the Company’s  dividend policy of  paying out 85%  of property income  from the property  rental business.  This
    brings the full year dividend to 4.89 cents and represents a 19.9% increase on the 2024 dividend of 4.08 cents per share.

Outlook

  • The Company will continue to focus  on delivering against its strategic priorities  to maximise shareholder value by  growing
    revenue and managing costs, with a strong focus on optimising the operational performance of the business. Backed by a highly
    efficient and scalable internalised  platform, set against the  backdrop of positive regulatory  change and improving  market
    conditions, the Company is exceptionally well positioned to take advantage of tailwinds to drive earnings growth and enhanced
    shareholder value.
  • The Company remains committed  to a disciplined  capital allocation strategy, prioritising  robust balance sheet  management,
    delivering consistent  shareholder  returns through  its  ordinary dividend,  whilst  pursuing long-term  value  creation  by
    re-investing sales proceeds in strategically located assets that enhance shareholder value or continuing to return capital to
    shareholders.
  • In line with this capital allocation strategy and against a backdrop of improving valuations, the successful asset  recycling
    programme has given  I-RES the flexibility  to pursue, in  the first instance,  recycling the sales  proceeds into  portfolio
    enhancing opportunities whilst continuing to manage LTV. 
  • The Company has welcomed the Government’s proactive approach towards reviving housing construction. The new rental regulation
    measures taking effect on 1 March 2026 will have a positive impact on both the market and the Company. We have already  begun
    to see an increase in market activity and an increase in development activity. I-RES sees itself playing an important role in
    the delivery of new high-quality rental accommodation in Ireland in the coming years.

Business Review

Internalised Operating Platform Drives Strong Operational Performance

The Company delivered a strong financial  and operational performance in 2025,  making progress against strategic objectives  and
delivering improvements  across  numerous key  performance  indicators. Our  high-quality  portfolio of  modern  and  sustainable
properties remained effectively fully occupied at 31 December  2025 at 99.5% (2024: 99.4%), reflecting the consistent  efficiency
of our property management operations, the mid-market positioning of our assets and the continued strength of demand in the Irish
Private Rental Sector (“PRS”) market.

Organic rental increases in Ireland under the existing rental regulations are limited to the lower of 2% or the Harmonised  Index
of Consumer Prices (“HICP). Rent increases  were impacted by the low rate  of HICP inflation in the first  half of 2025 and as  a
result of this, combined with the disposal  of 41 units completed as part of  our ongoing asset recycling plan, reported  revenue
increased by 0.2% in the period to €85.5 million. During the year, 14% of the portfolio units turned over, in line with last year
despite the fact that  a number of  units where leases  ended were not  turned over as  they were disposed  of through the  asset
recycling programme.

Net Rental Income (“NRI”) increased by 1.9% in 2025 despite the sale of c. 3% of the portfolio in the last 18 months as a  result
of NRI margin growth of 120bps in 2025 to 78.0%  (2024: 76.8%). As highlighted by incremental margin improvements, we are  making
strong progress implementing income generating and cost management  and recovery initiatives to improve the profitability of  our
real estate  portfolio. This  includes  a sustained  focus  on cash  collections, savings  achieved  from management  of  Owner’s
Management Companies (“OMCs”) and associated costs, contract negotiations and certain cost recoveries on new leases. We  continue
to review operations for cost efficiencies and revenue opportunities.

Adjusted G&A expenses include costs such as employees’ salaries,  director fees, professional fees for audit, legal and  advisory
services, depository fees, property valuation fees, insurance costs  and other general and administrative expenses, and  excludes
non-recurring costs. Despite inflationary pressures in some of these  cost items, we have managed to achieve a moderate  decrease
of 1.8% in Adjusted G&A expenses to €11.7m (2024: €11.9m) through focused cost control and partly due to additional costs related
to CEO and Chair recruitment costs expensed in 2024.

In March 2025 the Company successfully refinanced its existing Revolving Credit Facility (“RCF”). The new facilities comprise  an
RCF of €500 million and an Accordion  Facility of €200 million which adds an  additional element of flexibility to the  Company's
debt facilities. The facilities have a five-year term expiring in March 2030 with the option of two one-year extensions.  Hedging
instruments in the amount of €275 million have been put in place until maturity, maintaining the Company’s overall level of fixed
rate debt at c. 85%  of drawn facilities. Following this  refinancing, the current weighted average  cost of interest across  the
Group’s facilities is  3.71% in  2025, broadly  in line  with the  Group’s weighted  average financing  costs in  2024 of  3.79%.
Financing costs in 2025 were slightly ahead of 2024 at €24.3  million due to costs incurred for the acceleration of the  deferred
loan costs  associated with  the refinancing  of the  RCF at  c. €0.6  million and  the termination  of the  interest rate  swaps
associated with the previous RCF.

In November 2025 the Company converted its €500 million RCF, signed in March 2025, into a Sustainability Linked Loan (“SLL”) that
aligns with  the Loan  Market Association’s  March 2025  principles for  sustainable finance.  The SLL  ties financing  costs  to
independently verified Sustainability Performance Indicators. This structure supports I-RES’ sustainability strategy. The RCF was
arranged with four  lenders: The Governor  and the  Company of the  Bank of  Ireland, Allied Irish  Banks P.L.C.  (Sustainability
Coordinator), ABN AMRO Bank N.V. and Barclays Bank Ireland PLC.

The Company delivered growth of 1.5% in Adjusted EPRA earnings  at €29.4 million (2024: €28.9 million) and 2.3% in Adjusted  EPRA
EPS (2024: 1.4%) driven by the increase in NRI margin and the share buyback programme executed during the period.

In 2025, the Company has completed the disposal of 41 units in total as part of the overall disposal target of 315 units, with an
additional 21 units held for sale at year  end which we expect to close in  the coming months. The sales are achieving  premia in
excess of 25%, and gross proceeds in 2025 were €16.1 million.  This takes the total number of units disposed under the  programme
to 82. In addition, a bulk sale  of 25 units was completed in  H2 2024 taking total gross proceeds  for the sale of 107 units  to
€34.9 million across  2024-2025. As  a result  of these  disposals in  2025 Adjusted  Earnings (excluding  fair value  movements)
increased 7.4% from €30.5 million to €32.8 million.

 

 

 

 

 

The Company continues to actively dispose of the identified units and given the strong sales premia achieved in 2025, expect that
the disposal premia in 2026 will continue at a c. 25% premium.

I-RES recognises  its investment  properties  at fair  value at  each  reporting period,  with any  unrealised  gain or  loss  on
re-measurement recognised in the profit or loss account. In the period, the fair value gain recorded on investment properties was
€17.0 million (2024: loss of €33.7 million), reflecting the stabilisation of yields across the wider Irish residential market and
positive organic growth.  We are encouraged  by the continued  yield stabilisation witnessed  in the market  for the last  twelve
months after two years  of expansion. Our Gross  Yield was 7.0%  at period end, well  in excess of our  weighted average cost  of
interest of 3.71% whilst EPRA Net Initial Yield remained broadly flat at 5.2% (2024: 5.1%).

The Irish Government has approved a suite of new rental regulations, which include the ability to reset the rent of a  particular
unit when a tenant  vacates and a  new lease is  put in place  from 1 March  2026. As a  result of this  change and the  expected
increase in the income  profile of our  properties as we capture  the 20% embedded  reversion, we expect there  to be a  positive
impact on  valuations, assuming  no market  yields movement  over time.  The new  legislation is  expected to  be passed  by  the
Oireachtas shortly, in advance of 1 March 2026.

 

Yields

As at                     31 December 2025 31 December 2024
Gross Yield at Fair Value             7.0%             7.0%
EPRA Net Initial Yield                5.2%             5.1%

 

Our average monthly rent  increased to €1,852 from  €1,814 at 31 December  2024 representing an increase  of 2.1% reflecting  our
continued focus  on asset  management and  selective disposal  of  underperforming and  lower quality  assets. Despite  this  our
portfolio is currently estimated  to be 20% below  market rent. Occupancy of  99.5% (FY 2024: 99.4%)  reflects an effective  full
occupancy rate which is supported by our mid-market  residential sector positioning and continues to highlight the  supply/demand
imbalance in the market.

We delivered a  Total Accounting Return  for 2025 of  8.1% versus negative  1.0% in 2024.  A key driver  for the improved  return
includes the ongoing strong dividend paid by the Company, which has increased in 2025 due to the elimination of the non-recurring
costs in 2024 and NRI  Margin improvement. In addition,  our EPRA Net Tangible  Assets (“NTA”) per share  growth of 5.7 cent  has
improved due to the valuation  increase of our investment property  driven by organic rental growth  and cost management and  the
profits achieved from the asset  recycling programme. The impact of  the share buyback programme has  also aided the increase  in
EPRA NTA per share.

Balance Sheet 

Our total investment property  value at 31 December  2025 was €1,246.9 million.  This represents a 1.2%  increase compared to  31
December 2024 driven by the revaluation of  investment properties and offset by the disposal  of 41 units as part of our  ongoing
asset recycling programme. Yields and valuations remained broadly flat in the period with EPRA Net Initial Yield at 5.2% as at 31
December 2025, remaining flat versus 30 June 2025. We continue to reinvest in our portfolio of assets, to ensure we maintain  our
exceptional levels of occupancy  and tenant demand, whilst  future proofing our  assets and enabling us  to capture the  embedded
reversion in the portfolio once the rental regulations are revised from 1 March 2026.

I-RES seeks to use  leverage to enhance  shareholder returns over  the long term. I-RES  takes a proactive  approach to its  debt
strategy to ensure the Group  has laddering of debt maturities  and the Group’s leverage ratio  and interest coverage ratios  are
maintained at a  sustainable level. Our  debt facilities are  made up of  our recently refinanced  €500 million RCF  and c.  €200
million (Euro Equivalent) of Private Placement Notes.

The successful refinancing  of the  RCF in 2025  has extended  the facilities for  5 years  to 2030 with  two one-year  extension
options, strengthening the Company’s capital structure. The Company has  no debt maturities before 2027, and laddering is out  to
2032 thereafter. As outlined, we  have converted the RCF  into an SLL which will  tie the margin charged  on the facility to  the
performance against sustainability KPI’s through a ratchet of 5bps upwards and downwards from a base margin rate of 2.0%.

Net LTV at 31 December 2025  stood at 43.6%, down from 44.4%  at 31 December 2024. The decrease  in LTV can be attributed to  the
ongoing, successful asset  recycling programme and  strong premia being  achieved on these  sales along with  an increase in  the
valuation of the properties driven by organic rental growth and strong cost optimisation initiatives. Our leverage level  remains
well below the 50%  maximum allowed by the  Irish REIT regime and  the Group’s debt financial  leverage ratio covenant. I-RES  is
focused on managing LTV through the cycle between the 40%-45% range.

The Private Placement Notes were issued in March  2020 and are made up of €130  million and $75 million notes. On closing,  I-RES
entered into a cross-currency interest rate swap resulting in an overall weighted average fixed interest rate of 1.92%  inclusive
of swap costs and excluding transaction  costs for the full principal  of the notes. The maturity  of the notes is laddered  over
circa six, nine and eleven years, with the first repayment due in March 2027.

Drawn debt facilities  are predominantly hedged  against interest rate  volatility, with over  85% fully fixed.  The Group has  a
weighted average drawn debt maturity of 4.1  years and no debt maturities before 2027.  The weighted average cost of interest  is
3.71% for 2025 (2024: 3.79%). The remaining undrawn committed facilities are c. €148 million.

The IFRS NAV per share is 131.7 cent,  up 4.4% from 126.2 cent at 31 December  2024 aided by the increased asset valuations,  the
impact of the share buyback programme and the ongoing successful asset recycling programme.

has entered into cross currency swaps to fix this at €68.8 million.

In line with our capital  allocation strategy and recognising the  discount between the Company’s share  price and its Net  Asset
Value per share the Company utilised excess capital generated through premia achieved on disposals to execute a share buyback  of
€5 million in H1 2025, with approx. 5.1 million shares purchased at an average price per share of 97.3 cents.

 

Capital Allocation

The Board remains committed to maximising value for shareholders and addressing the discount between the Company’s current market
capitalisation and Net Asset Value.

In line with this objective, proceeds from the ongoing asset recycling programme are expected to be deployed towards:

  ▪ Continuing to actively manage LTV within the Board’s target range of between 40% and 45%, and subsequently:

       ◦ Enhancing returns through re-investing in our own portfolio and also exploring opportunities to acquire strategically
         located/attractive assets and/or
       ◦ An efficient return of capital to shareholders where it is considered the best use of capital.

In line with the above  allocation framework, proceeds realised  from the asset recycling programme  have enabled the Company  to
successfully reduce Net LTV and execute a share buyback programme in 2025, which contributed to the improvement in EPS.

Looking forward  to  2026,  and  in light  of  the  continually  improving investment  environment  and  increase  in  attractive
opportunities coming to the market, we will in the first instance look to replace the units we have disposed of over the past  18
months whilst continuing to manage our LTV.

The Board will  continue to monitor  the capital allocation  strategy for the  Group, taking into  account the prevailing  market
environment and the appropriate use of funds to best deliver on the long-term objective of maximising value for shareholders.  In
light of the current market environment and taking account of the current discount between the Company’s share price and its  Net
Asset Value per  share, the  Board believes  it is  appropriate to  continue to  focus on  the above  value accretive  allocation
strategies.

Dividend

In line with Irish REIT legislation, the Board intends to declare a dividend of 2.53 cents per share for the six months ended  31
December 2025, in line with the requirements of Irish  REIT legislation and representing the Company’s dividend policy of  paying
out 85% of property income from the property rental business. This  brings the full year dividend to 4.89 cents and represents  a
19.9% increase on the 2024 dividend of 4.08 cents per share.

Public Policy

I-RES is supportive of the Government’s numerous efforts to  implement policy measures which support an environment of  increased
investment in  the development  of new  housing supply.  The changes  made to  rental regulations  along with  amendments to  the
sustainable design  standards, direct  and  indirect tax  amendments  in the  2026 Budget  and  the ‘Delivering  Homes,  Building
Communities 2025 – 2030’ plan, all provide positive steps to addressing the viability challenge for the delivery of new apartment
developments. We were pleased to see the Government approve the ‘Residential Tenancies (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2026’  and
expect it to be passed by the Oireachtas shortly in advance of  1 March 2026. We believe this will not only provide for  stronger
tenant protections and greater certainty for renters, but creates an environment in which new apartment development can restart.

The new legislation  will take time  to translate into  newly delivered  stock, but the  Company has already  seen a  significant
increase in market  activity in  the sector,  an increase  in development activity,  and importantly  has resulted  in a  renewed
interest from international  capital sources  in investing  in the  delivery of new  homes and  apartments. With  a positive  and
balanced regulatory framework now in place the Company sees itself playing an important role in the delivery of new  high-quality
rental accommodation in  Ireland in  the coming  years. The  Company will  in the  first instance  look to  achieve this  through
recycling internally generated capital into portfolio enhancing acquisition opportunities. 

I-RES will continue to be very disciplined in relation to its capital allocation priorities. The Company believes that under  the
new rent regulation, along with improving market dynamics, there  is now a substantial opportunity for growth, which will  enable
the Company to deliver improved shareholder value creation over the medium to long term. All potential growth opportunities  will
be assessed against alternatives to maximise shareholder returns on an ongoing basis.

CFO Succession

As announced in January, CFO Brian Fagan has notified the Company of his intention to retire this summer. He will be succeeded by
Mari Hurley who will join the Company, on  a date to be confirmed in due  course, initially as CFO designate before assuming  the
role of CFO on Brian’s retirement. Ms. Hurley  joins the Company from her current role  as CFO of state broadcaster RTÉ. She  has
extensive experience as a CFO and business leader in Ireland and the UK, in publicly listed companies as well as in large private
and semi state companies.  In addition, she  served as a  non-executive Director on  the Board of  the National Asset  Management
Agency (“NAMA”) for ten years from 2014 to 2024.  Prior to her current role in RTE she  worked as CFO for the AA (Ireland) for  3
years and  for Premier  Lotteries Ireland  (operator of  the Irish  National Lottery)  for 3  years. She  also served  as CFO  of
Hostelworld Group plc, a role she held for 11 years. Prior to that Ms Hurley served as CFO for the property advisory firm  Sherry
FitzGerald Group during its time as a listed company.

Outlook

We look ahead to 2026 with optimism. The Company  expects to continue to realise efficiencies from its market-leading  internally
managed operating platform, supporting sustained  earnings growth and further margin  improvements. The Company will continue  to
execute on its strategic priorities and remain focused on crystalising strong premia on the sales programme.

Regulatory developments during the period have strengthened the  medium‑term outlook, with revised rental rules improving  income
growth outlook and supporting a more attractive investment environment. The Company believes these changes will not only  benefit
the business but also stimulate broader market liquidity and  encourage much‑needed new supply. The Company has already begun  to
see an increase in market activity and an increase in development activity. The Company sees itself playing an important role  in
the delivery of new high-quality rental accommodation in Ireland in the coming years with a new and balanced regulatory framework
now in place.

The Company will continue to be disciplined on capital allocation,  in the first instance ensuring prudent balance sheet and  LTV
management whilst ensuring shareholder  returns through the  ordinary dividend are maintained.  Where appropriate capital  raised
through the asset recycling programme will be deployed into new assets, earnings enhancing investments in our existing  portfolio
or returned to shareholders by way of share buybacks, or  special dividends where it is the most efficient and accretive  option.
The Company is  exploring opportunities to  re-invest the  proceeds achieved to  date and  replace the units  disposed as  market
conditions and liquidity are improving. We  will continue to monitor accretive growth  opportunities and assess this against  our
capital allocation strategy whilst ensuring our LTV is within our desired operating range.

With a highly efficient, scalable  platform and an improving  regulatory and investment market  backdrop, I‑RES enters 2026  well
positioned to deliver growth and enhanced shareholder value.

Sustainability  

 

Ireland faces  two interconnected and at  times conflicting  challenges: a  housing crisis  that has  left many  without  secure,
affordable homes and  a climate  crisis that  demands urgent  action to reduce  emissions and  build resilience.  As the  leading
provider of rental homes  in Ireland, I-RES  recognises its responsibility  to help address  both. Housing is  not only a  social
necessity but  also  a critical component of  sustainable  communities.  By providing  high-quality,  energy-efficient  homes and
investing in low-carbon solutions, we aim to provide secure accommodation and social value while reducing environmental impact.  

Collaboration with stakeholders will remain a cornerstone of our approach as we work together to address systemic challenges.   

In 2025,  the business  continued  to make  progress  on our sustainability ambitions  through  environmental action  and  social
impact, achieving significant milestones.

 

Operating Responsibly   

Disclosure & Data 

We are committed  to clear,  consistent communication  and disclosure,  ensuring accountability  and fostering trust  across  all
stakeholder groups.  

The year began with a  focus on meeting  Corporate Sustainability Reporting  Directive (“CSRD”) disclosure requirements,  however
given the progression of the  Omnibus Proposals, it now appears likely  that I-RES will remain out  of scope for CSRD  reporting.
Nevertheless, the insights we garnered from carrying out the Double Materiality Assessment have been very valuable, informing our
strategy going forward.

We maintained our European Public Real Estate  Association (“EPRA”) Sustainability  Best Practices Recommendations (“sBPR”)  Gold
Award for our latest sustainability  reporting for  the  fifth consecutive  year. Our GRESB score  increased  by a  further  four
points maintaining a 3-star rating and we maintained our Carbon Disclosure  Project(“CDP”) B rating (highest score for SMEs).  We
also improved our MSCI rating from BBB to A and our S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Rating has increased to 44 from 42.  

ESG data capture and analysis processes were further streamlined and to ensure the  robustness of our approach, our ESG data  and
approach is assured by a third-party assessor.We continued our engagement with the Commission for Regulation of Utilities (“CRU”)
smart-meter programme to improve energy data-collection capabilities. 

Sustainability-Linked Financing 

We have made significant  progress in establishing sustainability-linked  financing mechanisms.  Over  the  past  year,  we  have
aligned our sustainability  performance indicators  with credible,  measurable targets  that  reflect  our  strategic priorities,
particularly in areas such  as carbon reduction, resource efficiency  and community impact. A key  milestone in this journey  was
the conversion in  November 2025  of  our €500  million  RCF, signed  in  March 2025,  into  an SLL  that  aligns with  the  Loan
Market Association’s March 2025 principles for sustainable finance. 

Risk Management  

I-RES operates a strong integrated sustainability risk framework, supported by Board level oversight and alignment with ISO 14001
and ISO 31000. We have begun detailed site  level climate risk reviews, informed by  national flood risk data and will  implement
targeted mitigation measures where required.  

In parallel, we enhanced our  cybersecurity and data protection capabilities, updating our  cyber programme to leading  standards
and expanding governance, training and 24/7 monitoring and threat detection. 

Health and safety remain a  core organisational priority,  supported by a  robust safety management  framework, qualified  staff,
comprehensive training and strong governance to ensure the wellbeing of residents, employees, contractors and stakeholders. 

Responsible Sourcing  

I-RES continues to  strengthen sustainable  procurement by partnering  with suppliers  that share our  ethical and  environmental
commitments. Through targeted  engagement, training and  our  Responsible  Sourcing Policy,  we  are  supporting  circular, lower
impact product choices. Since  launching our  vendor engagement  programme in 2022 we  have achieved  a 35%  increase in  Tier  1
vendors (from 15% to  50%) with sustainability  policies in  place and 25% are now  reporting  their carbon  footprint since  the
programme began. We also work closely with OMCs to advance energy efficiency and waste reduction initiatives. 

Protecting the Environment  

We are fully committed to achieving Net Zero Carbon by 2050 and continue to measure and report on our organisational footprint in
our annual Sustainability Report, as well as in our ESG ratings disclosures.   

Climate Change  

In 2025,  we commenced the development  of our Climate  Transition  Plan which will provide us  with  a long-term  direction  for
decarbonisation, guiding us step by step over the next 25 years. This  plan is not static; it will evolve as we  balance ambition
with practical realities,  including budgets and  investments. It is  the foundation  for a future where  our portfolio  delivers
meaningful carbon reductions,  firmly  positioning  I-RES  on the  pathway to net  zero.  It  will form  a  critical component of
our sustainability  linked financing  going  forward,  ensuring  alignment between  our  environmental  ambitions   and financial
strategy.  

Environmental Management 

Our environmental KPIs are fully aligned with our SLL framework. We are currently finalising our greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions
performance data, which will be disclosed in our Sustainability Report scheduled for publication in April 2026.

To date, we have proactively  installed eight solar  panels across seven properties, totalling 118 kWp, and  enabled car  sharing
in seven properties. 100% of common areas across wholly owned assets are powered by renewable energy.  

We are closely monitoring the EU’s  revised Energy Performance  of Buildings Directive  (“EPBD”), which aims  to decarbonise  the
built environment by 2050, as Ireland prepares to transpose the  directive into Irish Law in March 2026. Our efforts to meet  the
EPBD standards include retrofitting suitable low-energy-rated properties when they became vacant.

We have maintained zero waste to landfill  for directly managed assets and our  waste management programme is improving  with new
resources for residents.  

Biodiversity initiatives across our portfolio continue to aid pollination and wildlife. 

 

Building Communities 

Residents  

We are committed to delivering exceptional customer service and providing safe, secure, comfortable and high-quality homes, while
fostering vibrant  communities  for our  residents. In  2025, to  strengthen  engagement across our residential  communities,  we
launched a dedicated  resident  facing  brand, I-RES  Living, connecting  over   3,600  homes  across  Dublin  through   tailored
communication channels.

Our  annual  Resident  Survey  continues  to provide valuable insights. Our  Net  Promoter   Score remains strong versus industry
benchmarks, particularly among  younger and  newer residents. The 2025  survey showed two in three residents value  environmental
sustainability, with high interest  in recycling,  waste management,  energy, water conservation  and pollinator  gardens. Survey
results are analysed  and used  by the resident management  teams to  prepare individual improvement plans for  each property  to
address key concerns highlighted in the survey, with actions implemented and monitored throughout the year.  

Employees   

Demonstrating our continued commitment to employee well-being and experience, we introduced further enhancements to our  employee
benefits in 2025, including expanded health  insurance cover, improved leave allowances and  enhanced pension  benefits. We  also
introduced further learning and development opportunities, with employees completing a combined average of 42 training hours.

A social & Equality,  Diversity and  Inclusion (“EDI”) committee  was established focusing on promoting  equality, diversity  and
inclusion  to  create  a   welcoming  environment  for   everyone.  The  group   delivered a programme  of  employee   engagement
events throughout the year.  

In our most recent independent employee survey, participation reached 92%, with an overall satisfaction rate of 90%. 

Community  

As a provider of residential homes and services, our team  is deeply connected to local communities. We continue to partner  with
educational NGOs, support  local sports teams  and our employees  are very involved in charity  events for those  in need  across
Dublin. I-RES’  employees helped raise  funds for  charities  and together  volunteered over 620+  hours  engaging  in  community
activities.   

Looking Forward  

We are committed to operating responsibly and to being a leading voice in shaping Ireland’s sustainable property sector.  Through
collaboration, innovation and  relentless focus  on our  net zero pathway,  we aim  to set  a benchmark  for responsible  growth,
sustainable properties and positive environmental and social impact. 

We will  further develop  our Net Zero  Carbon  Transition Plan,  advancing carbon-reduction initiatives  across scope  1,  2 and
3, measuring our social-value impact and supporting our colleagues in their roles and in our community initiatives,  fundraising,
charitable giving and resident engagement. 

 

Market Outlook

Macroeconomic Landscape

2025 has been a year characterised by shifting geoeconomic relationships causing heightened uncertainty. As a small, open economy
with significant trading and investment relationships with the US and  EU, Ireland is not exempt from the challenges caused by  a
changing geoeconomic and  geopolitical landscape. Policy uncertainty,  in particular related  to significant shifts  in US  trade
policy, has directly shaped headline economic activity in Ireland in  2025, with uncertainty spiking in April driven by US  trade
policy announcements. 

However, the Irish economy continued to outperform. Employment remained exceptionally strong in 2025 with unemployment sitting at
5%1 in 2025. Economic activity was very strong  in 2025 with GDP expected to have  grown by 10.7% according to the EU  commission
outperforming all EU peers2, while Modified Domestic Demand (“MDD”) is forecast to have grown by 3.9% in 20253.

Housing Critically Undersupplied; Positive Government Interventions Will Take Time To Affect Output

The Irish housing  market continues  to experience several  long-term tailwinds  that are expected  to sustain  demand and  price
pressures over the medium-term.  The supply of  housing remains significantly below  levels required to  meet current and  future
demand. Last year,  the Government approved  new national housing  targets up  to the year  2030. The Government  aim to  deliver
303,000 new homes in the period from 2025 to 2030, equating to an annual average of 50,500 homes, building up to 60,000 in  2030.
In 2025, housing targets were missed, with completions coming in at  36,200. However, this is a healthy increase of 20.4% on  the
previous year, with an increase of 38.7% in the number  of apartments completed. These are positive early signs that an  improved
regulatory environment will lead to a sustained increase in output over time.

Housing completions are  forecast to  reach 37,000,  40,500 and  44,500 in 2026,  2027 and  2028 respectively,  still below  what
independent estimates show is required to meet demand. Davy estimate  that there is currently demand for 93,000 new units a  year
with pent-up demand for c.  230,000 homes, or more than  10% of the housing stock.  Capital financing requirements are also  very
large and could top €40 billion by 20314.

To address this chronic supply and  demand imbalance, the Government has approved  changes to the Irish residential rent  control
system. These changes are intended to increase the supply of rental accommodation and attract crucial investment. The new changes
are to take effect from 1 March 2026. The  rents for new build apartments will not be  subject to the current 2% cap but will  be
linked to inflation and capped by the  Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). This applies  to new apartment developments commenced on  or
after 10 June 2025. 

  ▪ No changes will be implemented for tenancies created before 1 March 2026.
  ▪ Landlords of tenancies  created on  or after  1 March 2026  will be  able to  reset the rent  levels to  market rent  between
    tenancies. During the tenancy increases are subject to the lower of 2% or CPI.
  ▪ Landlords of tenancies created on or after 1  March 2026 will be able to reset the  rent levels to market rent at the end  of
    each 6-year tenancy period.

There will be a new distinction between “large” and “small” landlords. Large landlords are those who have four or more  tenancies
and small landlords are those with three or fewer tenancies. Different termination rules will apply to large and small landlords.

The Company welcomes these changes. Although it will take time for the changes to translate into new supply, in the long run this
will be positive  for the rental  sector and its  ability to  increase housing output.  When PRS yields  increased globally,  the
severity of the previous rent regulations in Ireland caused yields to increase by far more than in other European markets.  Prime
net PRS yields in Dublin have increased by 115 bps from 3.6% to 4.75% from peak to trough. The prime net yield in Dublin of 4.75%
is now one of the highest in Europe. The recent proposed  changes in rent regulations should reduce the spread in Dublin’s  prime
net PRS yield versus other European markets. Any potential tightening in yields due to new rent regulations will have a  positive
impact on development viability, helping stimulate new supply and unlocking challenged developments. 

Regulatory Change and Improving Market Conditions Bring Positive Outlook For Investment

Ireland's residential  investment  market experienced  a  sluggish  start to  2025,  with just €10  million deployed  across  two
transactions in Q1. However,  the market began  to pick up  pace with the  Government indicating plans  for a revised  regulatory
framework, and volumes reached €400 million  for the full year 2025. CBRE  Ireland estimate residential transaction volumes  will
more than double in  2026, with forecasts  of €800 million  to €1 billion.  Transactional activity across  all sectors picked  up
towards the end  of the  year, and  a total of  €2.5 billion  of investment  trades completed in  2025. Activity  is expected  to
accelerate further in 2026, with forecasts exceeding €3 billion and possibly trending towards €4 billion5.

CBRE Ireland have  forecast that  against the  backdrop of increasing  volumes, liquidity  and an  improved regulatory  framework
providing certainty, they ‘expect prime PRS yields to compress by 25 bps this year as new capital competes for stock in a  market
that is supported by a number of tailwinds, including being the most targeted sector for investors around Europe and seeing  more
favourable debt terms on offer5.

Principal risks and uncertainties

 

The Directors of the Company set out below the principal risks and uncertainties that I-RES is currently exposed to and that  may
impact performance in the coming financial year in pursuing its current strategy.

I-RES through its risk management processes  proactively identifies, assesses, monitors and  manages these risks. While risk  can
never be fully eliminated, the risk management process is designed to identify, evaluate and respond to the material existing and
emerging risks that I-RES faces in delivering on its agreed  strategy and in that context therefore can only provide  reasonable,
but not absolute assurance that risks will not materialise. The process aims to understand and appropriately manage and  mitigate
identified risks.

The principal risks  and uncertainties,  along with their  strategic impact  on the business  and mitigating  factors, have  been
outlined below. I-RES has also provided its view on how the risk has changed or trended during the year ended 31 December 2025.

                    Geopolitical Instability, Economy and Inflation

                    Continuing heightened  levels of  global instability  in economic  and geopolitical  arenas could  lead to  a
Risk                general weakening  of the  Irish economy  and increasing  inflation. Of  key concern  are potential  negative
                    impacts on the Irish economy  generally and particularly on the  residential property sector for the  greater
                    Dublin area where our portfolio is located. Overall, while Ireland's economy is resilient, its openness makes
                    it vulnerable to global economic and political shifts.
                    High

Strategic Impact    The risk remains  high. Reduced economic  activity, driven by  external shocks or  domestic pressures,  could
                    negatively affect  business  performance,  asset  values  and  net  rental  income.  Inflationary  pressures,
                    especially if input  and payroll  costs outpace rent  inflation, could  further erode net  rental income  and
                    earnings.
                    On an  ongoing basis  Management  actively monitor  and report  to  the Board  on business  performance,  the
                    macro-economic and  geopolitical  environment  and  residential  sector  developments.  The  Board  regularly
                    considers the wider economic and macro-outlook and its impact on I-RES’ strategy and budgetary processes.

                    We continue to monitor  the impact that  changes in inflation and  interest rates are  having on our  sector.
                    I-RES’ business is focused on the greater Dublin  area, which continues to be economically resilient.  I-RES’
                    properties continue to experience exceptional demand when units  are available with occupancy of 99.5% as  at
Mitigation Strategy 31 December 2025 (99.4% at 31 December 2024).

                    There is also strong continuing focus  through our internal teams on  active revenue and cost control  within
                    the day-to-day business operations. I-RES retains its strong financial position, with a robust balance  sheet
                    and ample liquidity. Hedging facilities in the amount of €275 million have been put in place for five  years,
                    maintaining the Company’s overall level of fixed rate debt at c. 85%. Following this refinancing, the current
                    weighted average cost of interest across  the Group’s facilities is 3.71%,  broadly in line with the  Group’s
                    weighted average financing costs in 2024.
                    Increasing

                    Uncertainty and volatility persist in  the global landscape, though global  trade in 2025 was more  resilient
                    than initially anticipated. The Irish economy continues  to show resilience, but downside risks are  mounting
                    due to  geopolitical fragmentation,  ongoing trade  tariffs and  the potential  for economic  downturns.  The
                    Central Bank’s Q4 2025  Bulletin highlights risk from  multinational concentration, supply-side  constraints,
Risk Trending Since and slightly higher services inflation.
31 December 2024
                    The ECB’s rate  cuts throughout 2025  have stabilized the  interest rate environment,  but inflation  remains
                    elevated (3.2% year-on-year in November 2025), with forecasts for 2026 suggesting a moderation toward Central
                    Bank targets (1.8 – 2.1%). However,  energy costs are expected to remain  high and uncertainty around US  tax
                    and trade policy could further impact the Irish economy.  Cost pressures are likely to persist into 2026  due
                    to inflation’s lagged effects.

                     
                    Regulatory and Legislative Impacts

Risk                In recent years, changes to rental  property, tax and REIT regulations in  Ireland have been made which  have
                    significantly limited revenue growth even at times of high inflation. Together these regulatory changes  have
                    resulted in some diminution in the attractiveness of  the Irish PRS sector and Irish REITs for  international
                    investors.
                    High

                    The industry has faced an environment of increased costs  of financing and operation, while at the same  time
                    having legislative constraints on revenues through restrictive rental property regulations.

Strategic Impact    Amendments to Regulatory restrictions in Ireland implemented in December 2021 limiting annual rent  increases
                    to the lower of HICP and 2%  (and extended in May 2024 out to  December 2025), continued to impact on  I-RES’
                    ability to increase rents  in line with increasing  costs despite high demand  for properties continuing  and
                    thus impacted on I-RES’ attractiveness as an investment vehicle.

                    Recent proposed changes to the rental property regulations, if implemented, should reduce this risk.
                    I-RES actively  engages with  Government departments  and  contributes to  consultations on  relevant  sector
                    policy. The Company highlights structural housing supply  issues and the continued need for well  capitalised
                    providers who can both fund large scale  developments and professionally manage these residential units  upon
                    completion.

Mitigation Strategy A public affairs firm and industry groups support ongoing engagement with regulators and policymakers as part
                    of  consultation  and  engagement  with  relevant  authorities,  regulators  and  government  departments  on
                    significant policy and regulatory matters likely to impact on the Company’s affairs.

                    Strategy and investment  decisions incorporate current  and emerging legislation,  and training is  delivered
                    when new rules are enacted. Cost management remains a priority, given limits on revenue growth.
                    Stable

                    The Government’s June 2025 announcement  of revised rent regulations,  plus amendments to Sustainable  Design
                    Standards, tax changes  in Budget 2026,  and the Delivering  Homes, Building Communities  2025–2030 plan  are
Risk Trending Since positive steps toward improving viability and attracting investment. This plan underpins and provides clarity
                    that the revised rent regulations are on course to be introduced by the commencement date of 1st March  2026.
31 December 2024    Although implementation risk remains until  final regulations are enacted  (expected 1 March 2026),  improved
                    market sentiment and liquidity  support the stable trend  at this point. Once  fully enacted the  legislation
                    will reduce regulatory uncertainty, lowering the residual risk in this area.

                     
                    Portfolio Management and Investment

                    The risk  that I-RES  does not  achieve its  performance targets  due to  underperformance of  its  portfolio
                    management and  investment strategy.  At the  core of  our  success is  the need  to effectively  manage  the
Risk                investment and portfolio management activities we undertake.

                    I-RES is  exposed  to  the risk  that  portfolio  management or  investment  underperformance  could  prevent
                    achievement  of  financial  and  strategic  objectives.  Portfolio  management  focuses  on  value  enhancing
                    initiatives, maintenance, energy  efficiency and sustainability.  Investment management covers  acquisitions,
                    developments, joint ventures and capital recycling.
                    High
Strategic Impact
                    Failure to grow and optimise the  portfolio would limit the Company’s  ability to meet long term  shareholder
                    value targets.
                    I-RES leverages deep market knowledge, strong  industry relationships and identified potential joint  venture
                    partners to source opportunities.

                    The Company considers a three-pronged growth strategy: direct acquisitions, development opportunities  within
                    existing assets and selective partnerships. Capital recycling continues through targeted disposals where  the
                    transactions are value enhancing.
Mitigation Strategy
                    Comprehensive financial, legal, operational, technical and  environmental due diligence is undertaken on  all
                    transactions, with  support from  subject matter  experts as  required. Governance  structures require  Board
                    approval for material investments.

                    Ongoing reviews assess income expectations and operating costs for the portfolio, and disposal activity  over
                    the past two years has strengthened the balance sheet and portfolio quality.
                    Stable

                    There are clear sectoral issues with the  current underlying economic challenges facing residential  property
                    developers that are significantly constraining the availability of an active pipeline of relevant development
                    projects. These  are driven  by factors  such as  revenue constraints,  escalating construction  costs,  cost
                    inflationary pressures,  ongoing  planning challenges,  an  inefficient  rental regulation  framework  and  a
                    reduction in available capital to fund acquisitions.

                    Standing stock assets with realistic vendor valuation expectations continue to be in limited supply, and  new

                    acquisition and operational integration of  new assets into a professionally  run portfolio. In the short  to
                    medium term the limited supply of acquisition opportunities impacts the current growth opportunity for I-RES.
                    However, it is expected  that the supply of  potential acquisition targets will  improve as market  liquidity
                    will be stimulated by regulatory certainty following the introduction of the proposed changes in Irish rental
                    regulation in March 2026.

                    I-RES continues to monitor and adapt to impacts on the supply of construction labour and materials, both  for
                    development activity and any ongoing repair and maintenance related activity.

                     
                    Operational Management Risk

Risk                A key strategic imperative is continuing with revenue optimisation and cost reduction initiatives across  the
                    Company’s operations. Failure  to effectively  manage either  the revenue  or cost  streams would  negatively
                    impact on financial performance and the reported NRI and could damage the Company’s reputation since they are
                    key metrics for both our investors and providers of capital.
                    High

                    I-RES may not meet its performance targets if it  cannot continue to maximise the performance of its  overall
Strategic Impact    portfolio, if revenues are not optimised or if there are material cost overruns in the ongoing operation  and

                    Poor operational asset management may also result in negative impacts on the valuation and revenue generation
                    capacity of the portfolio.
                    I-RES’ operations  are well  managed and  when benchmarked  across key  revenue and  cost metrics,  including
                    operational expenditure  and  general  and administrative  costs,  maintain  cost levels  in  line  with  its
                    comparable European residential peers. I-RES continues to actively control costs, reflected in ongoing  focus
                    and initiatives  to mitigate  cost  inflation, maximise  revenues  from the  portfolio  and to  leverage  its
Mitigation Strategy operating platform.

                    As a fully integrated residential business with a  strong operating platform, I-RES is in a leading  position
                    to leverage a range of options for future growth and ensure it fully utilises and maximises the return on all
                    its assets including its operating platform. This platform is a strategic asset, and we continue to  leverage
                    its data capture and analysis capabilities to support our operations.
                    Stable

                    I-RES continues to  actively and  effectively manage  its operational  activities and,  operating within  the
                    legislative requirements, seeks to maximise rental income while maintaining a close focus on cost management.
                    I-RES actively controls both headcount and other costs and  continues to monitor and adapt to impacts on  the
Risk Trending Since supply of labour and materials for all ongoing repair and maintenance related activity.
31 December 2024
                    While there are  clear sectoral  issues that  continue to impact,  particularly on  the revenue  side due  to
                    current rent  pressure zone  (RPZ) regulation,  the  introduction of  the proposed  changes in  Irish  rental
                    regulation in March 2026 will create an opportunity for further revenue optimisation.

                     
                    Access to Capital
Risk
                    The ability to access capital may become limited, which would impact the growth strategy of I-RES.
                    Medium

Strategic Impact    If I-RES is unable to source debt financing at attractive  rates or raise equity, it may not be able to  meet
                    its growth  objectives  through  acquisitions  and  development  or  preserve  its  existing  assets  through
                    maintenance or capital expenditures.
                    The CEO and CFO have developed relationships with lenders, both in Ireland and internationally, which provide
                    ongoing financing possibilities for I-RES. In addition,  I-RES continues to explore possible new avenues  for
                    raising equity growth capital to support future expansion.

                    The quality  of I-RES’  property  portfolio and  the  LTV target  of  between 40%  and  45% on  total  assets
                    (particularly apartments) are  attractive credit characteristics  for potential lenders,  which to date  have
                    facilitated the raising  of debt  financing. I-RES  currently has an  RCF of  €500 million  and an  accordion
Mitigation Strategy facility of €200 million which  adds an additional element of  flexibility to the Company's debt  facilities.
                    The facilities have a five-year term expiring in March 2030 with the option of two one-year extensions.

                    I-RES invests in properties that generate a strong rate  of return for its investors and, in turn,  increases
                    the attractiveness of  its shares  and dividends.  I-RES actively manages  its liquidity  needs and  monitors
                    capital availability.

                    Through pro-active capital management and maintenance of a robust financial position, I-RES has not needed to
                    raise new capital nor place restrictions on its dividend policy.
                    Stable

                    As at 31 December  2025 I-RES had  drawn on its  credit facility in  the amount of  €352 million and  Private
                    Placement Notes of c. €200 million. I-RES continues to monitor liquidity needs to ensure that future  capital

                    Based on its financial position and  performance, as well as its  relationships with lenders and current  and
                    potential investors, I-RES can pursue opportunities should the underlying fundamentals and current  financial
                    obligations support the business case.

                     
                    Balance Sheet Management

Risk                A fundamental facet of  I-RES’ business relates  to the cost of  capital it deploys  and its leverage  level.
                    Interest rate  increases  and/or  property valuation  decreases  result  in higher  debt  service  costs  and
                    restriction of future leveraging opportunities due to its regulatory requirement to maintain LTV below 50%.
                    Medium

                    I-RES is exposed to risks associated with availability of capital (equity and debt) and movements in interest
                    rates on its floating rate bank debt, as well as movements in property valuations.

Strategic Impact    Additionally, property valuations are inherently subjective but  also driven by market forces. A  contraction
                    in property values  could make  I-RES too  highly geared, which  could result  in higher  interest costs  and
                    potential covenant breaches.

                    Rising interest rates, higher equity  costs or valuation declines  may create refinancing challenges,  reduce
                    growth capacity or increase covenant risk.
                    I-RES has a proven record of strong financial  results. Strong results, combined with being in a  residential
                    sector with a strong underlying market, help manage our ability to meet shareholders’ expectations and, thus,
                    the cost of equity.

                    As  previously  noted,  I-RES  has  developed  strong  relationships  with  lenders,  both  in  Ireland   and
                    internationally, which provide ongoing financing possibilities for I-RES.

                    I-RES completed a private placement of Notes of circa €200 million equivalent in March 2020, with a  weighted
                    average fixed interest rate of 1.92%  inclusive of swap costs. The Notes  have a laddered maturity over  six,
                    nine, and eleven years,  with the first  repayment due in  2027. As of  31 December 2025,  I-RES has c.  €7.6
                    million of cash  and €147.6  million of committed  undrawn debt  under its Revolving  Credit Facility.  I-RES
Mitigation Strategy maintains an active programme of engagement with its debt and equity providers, including an ongoing Investor
                    Relations programme.

                    I-RES’ refinanced its €500 million  revolving credit facility in March  2025 with a further uncommitted  €200
                    million accordion facility. The facility has two one-year extension options available.

                    I-RES’ net loan to value ratio was 43.6% as at 31 December 2025, well below the 50% maximum allowed under the
                    Irish REIT rules and the financial covenants under I-RES’ debt agreements. I-RES also manages its headroom on
                    its interest coverage ratio.

                    I-RES closely  monitors  property  values by  updating  its  property valuations  twice  annually  using  two
                    independent property valuation firms.

                    Cybersecurity and Data Protection

Risk                In the current environment, businesses encounter increased and persistent information security risks. Without
                    an adequate cybersecurity program and data governance frameworks, both internally and with service providers,
                    I-RES’ systems and data may be exposed to cybersecurity attacks, potentially resulting in service disruptions
                    or the loss of confidential commercial or personal information.
                    Medium

Strategic Impact    I-RES faces a continuous threat to its information systems, particularly if it fails to implement and adhere
                    to appropriate cybersecurity and data protection requirements and practices. Failure to maintain robust
                    cybersecurity and data governance could lead to service disruption, unauthorised access and regulatory
                    penalties. Risks are heightened if IT providers do not adhere to required standards.
                    I-RES continues  to  strengthen  its  approach  to cybersecurity  through  ongoing  risk  assessments  and  a
                    comprehensive annual assurance  programme, proactively addressing  threats emerging from  the external  cyber
                    risk landscape.  The  organisation consistently  invests  in controls  and  aligns its  Information  Security
                    Management System with ISO27001 standards, ensuring a robust foundation for its security practices.

                    In 2025, I-RES made substantial progress in advancing its cyber capability and IT resilience by embedding  an
                    enhanced Cyber  Security Framework.  This framework  forms the  backbone of  I-RES’ Cyber  Strategy,  driving
                    strategic investments in best-in-class technology, infrastructure upgrades and the implementation of advanced
                    24/7 threat  detection  and response  tools.  Regular  technology security  assessments,  including  phishing
                    simulations, ransomware scenario  testing and  vulnerability scans, are  conducted to  identify and  mitigate
                    potential risks.

                    I-RES maintains responsibility for data  privacy and protection as a  data processor, adapting its  practices
                    and those of its  sub-processors to keep  pace with ongoing technological  and legislative developments.  The
                    organisation demonstrates  agility  in  responding  to  new regulatory  requirements,  such  as  the  Digital
                    Operational Resilience Act (“DORA”) and  remains vigilant to evolving  threats such as AI-enabled  cybercrime
                    and sophisticated social engineering tactics.

Mitigation Strategy To foster  a culture  of security  awareness, I-RES  provides employees  with regular,  targeted training  on
                    cybersecurity, privacy and data protection. The training is continually updated to reflect the latest  threat
                    intelligence, best  practices,  and  compliance  obligations,  empowering  staff  to  recognise  and  respond
                    effectively to  potential cyber  risks. Additionally,  I-RES  encourages a  proactive reporting  culture  and
                    regularly reviews its incident response and recovery plans to ensure operational continuity in the event of a
                    cyber incident.

                    Through these ongoing enhancements, I-RES demonstrates its commitment to safeguarding stakeholder  interests,
                    maintaining regulatory  compliance  and protecting  confidential  business  and personal  information  in  an
                    increasingly complex digital environment.

                    Access to personal data is  controlled through physical and administrative  measures, and IT security.  I-RES
                    ensures all software is up to date to protect against known vulnerabilities and maintains regular backups  of
                    critical systems and  data supported  by recovery  plans to restore  operations quickly  in the  event of  an
                    incident. 

                    I-RES maintains cybersecurity insurance coverage and continues to monitor and assess risks surrounding
                    collection, processing, storage, disclosure, transfer, protection and retention/destruction practices for
                    personal data.

                    Low

                    I-RES is subject to a wide variety of laws and regulations (including those applicable to it as a listed
Strategic Impact    company) which vary in complexity, application, and frequency of change.

                    Non-compliance with any of these laws and regulations, depending on the scale of the incident, could result
                    in significant impacts including penalties/loss of regulated status and/or reputational damage.
                    There is  proactive monitoring  of I-RES’  compliance with  the rules  and regulations  across key  areas  of
                    activity, including  the  Listing  Rules,  Corporate  Governance  Code,  REIT  rules,  EU  and  Central  Bank
                    requirements and Tax legislation.

                    Within the business there are legal, risk and  compliance personnel who monitor both compliance with  current
Mitigation Strategy requirements and any impending or emerging changes in  rules and regulations or tax policies that may  impact
                    on the organisation. The results of these compliance reviews are reported to the Board on a quarterly  basis,
                    at a minimum.

                    In addition, I-RES’ external audit and internal audit providers carry out a suite of regular compliance
                    audits, agree appropriate remediation actions with Management where any shortcomings are identified and
                    provide independent reporting to the Audit Committee on the outcome of these reviews.
                    Stable

                    Medium

                    The I-RES portfolio  is a modern,  energy efficient portfolio.  However, as with  all real estate  companies,
                    there is an increasing exposure to environment and climate-related risks across the portfolio.

                    The climate-related risks/opportunities include, but  are not limited to,  more extreme and volatile  weather
Strategic Impact    events, further  changes  in regulations  or  government policies  in  response to  climate  change  targets,
                    reputation management, developing technology, investor pressure  and expectations, and the necessity to  have
                    in place an appropriate and effective climate adaptation strategy.

                    The environmental risks/opportunities include, but  are not limited to,  management of resource use  (energy,
                    water), material sourcing and use, greenhouse gas  emissions, and other impacts from operating,  maintaining,
                    and renovating our properties.
                    I-RES has embedded building a sustainable  business at the heart of  its strategy, providing and operating  a
                    modern residential asset portfolio with high sustainability features.

                    The Board has in place  a Sustainability Committee which, among  other duties, is responsible for  developing
                    and recommending to the Board the ESG strategy, policies, risks, targets, and investment required to  achieve
                    the approved ESG strategy.

                    In 2024, I-RES  carried out a  Double Materiality Assessment  examining both the  external environmental  and
                    social impacts of the Company and the internal organisational impacts of sustainability issues. This approach
                    ensures we have a comprehensive understanding of the material sustainability topics affecting the business.
Mitigation Strategy
                    In 2025, I-RES converted  its RCF into  a Sustainability Linked  Loan (“SLL”) which  ties financing costs  to
                    independently verified Sustainability Performance Indicators.

                    In 2025, I-RES  also began  the process of  preparing a  formal Climate Transition  Plan, which  will form  a
                    critical component of our sustainability-linked finance strategy.  The plan, which will include climate  risk
                    and opportunity identification, scenario analysis, and governance and financing, will ultimately outline  our
                    pathway to decarbonisation  and long-term  climate resilience.  Once finalised,  the targets  in our  Climate
                    Transition Plan will be embedded within our financial frameworks.

                    In order to  assess progress,  I-RES benchmarks  its Environmental,  Social and  Governance progress  against
                    several industry benchmarks.

                    Major Safety, Health, Security or Asset loss incident
Risk
                    Failure to respond appropriately to a major safety, health or security incident or to the loss of a  material
                    asset could adversely impact on reputation, property values and shareholder returns.
                    Medium

                    Failure to respond appropriately to  any material disruption to our  operations including a major  site-based
                    incident and in particular, failure to identify, mitigate and/or react effectively to a major health, safety,
                    or security incident, leading to:

Strategic Impact      ▪ Serious injury, illness, or loss of life
                      ▪ Delays to major building projects
                      ▪ Access restrictions to our properties resulting in loss of income
                      ▪ Inadequate response to regulatory changes
                      ▪ Reputational impact

                    Could result in impacts in terms of loss of income, impact on share price, loss of stakeholder confidence and
                    criminal/civil proceedings.
                    Health and Safety is a  core consideration in all  management activity and the  protection of the health  and
                    safety of our tenants, staff  and the public is  an area of continual  focus. I-RES monitors compliance  with
                    relevant regulations in key areas such as fire safety and housing standards.

                    All sites are  fitted with  fire detection  systems which  are subject  to ongoing  monitoring and  quarterly
                    testing.

Mitigation Strategy Emergency response  arrangements are  in place  as  part of  the business  continuity and  crisis  management
                    framework and are  aligned to best  practice procedures. Test  exercises are undertaken  and lessons  learned
                    reviews completed both on those exercises and any actual incidents that arise from normal operations.

                    The operations team is staffed by experienced industry  professionals who are based on site at the  locations
                    for which they are responsible. In  addition to ongoing monitoring of  our sites, procedures also include  an
                    annual safety assessment at  letting unit level. This  team is also supported  where necessary by  specialist
                    contractor suppliers in respect of the ongoing maintenance of our sites. There is also ongoing engagement  on
                    Health and Safety issues with OMCs and managing agents on sites not managed by I-RES.
                    Stable
Risk Trending Since
31 December 2024    I-RES has a proven record of the successful management of its portfolio of properties over an extended
                    period. The safe management of our sites in compliance with relevant regulations and requirements remains a
                    key and ongoing priority for the organisation.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 1. General Information

Irish Residential Properties REIT plc (“I-RES” or  the “Company”) was incorporated in Ireland on  2 July 2013. On 16 April  2014,
I-RES obtained admission of its  ordinary shares to the primary  listing segment of the Official  List of Euronext Dublin and  to
trading on the main market for listed securities of Euronext Dublin. I-RES’ registered office is South Dock House, Hanover  Quay,
Dublin 2, Ireland. The ordinary shares of I-RES are traded on the main market for listed securities of Euronext Dublin under  the
symbol “IRES”. The Group owns interests in residential rental accommodations, as well as commercial and development sites, all of
which are located in and near major urban centres in Dublin, Ireland.

 2. Material Accounting Policies

      a. Basis of preparation

This financial information  has been  derived from  the information  to be  used to  prepare the  Group’s consolidated  financial
statements for the year ended 31 December 2025 in  accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by  the
European Union (“IFRS”),  IFRS Interpretations  Committee (“IFRIC”) interpretations  and those  parts of the  Companies Act  2014
applicable to companies reporting under IFRS. The financial information for the years ended 31 December 2025 and 31 December 2024
has been prepared  under the  historical cost convention,  as modified  by the fair  value of  investment properties,  derivative
financial instruments at fair value and share options at grant  date through the profit or loss in the consolidated statement  of
profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

The consolidated  financial statements  of the  Group are  prepared on  a going  concern basis  of accounting.  The  consolidated
financial statements of the Group have been presented in Euro, which is the Company’s functional currency.

The consolidated financial statements of the Group cover the 12-month period from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2025.

The Group has not early adopted any forthcoming International  Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) standards. Note 2(s) sets  out
details of such upcoming standards.

Going concern

The Group meets its day-to-day  working capital requirements through  its cash and deposit  balances. The Group’s plans  indicate
that it should have  adequate resources to continue  operating for the  foreseeable future. The Group  has a strong  consolidated
statement of financial position with sufficient liquidity and flexibility  in place to manage through the potential headwinds  in
the current market. The Group can draw an additional €71 million  from its RCF (as defined below in note 10) while maintaining  a
maximum 50% Loan to value ratio as at 31 December 2025, as required by REIT legislation. As at 31 December 2025, the undrawn  RCF
amount is  €147.6  million. The  Group  generated positive  cashflows  from  operations for  the  year ended  31  December  2025.
Accordingly, the Directors consider it appropriate that the Group adopts the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation
of the consolidated financial statements.

 

 

 

‘2.    Material Accounting Policies (continued)

 b. Basis of consolidation

These consolidated financial  statements incorporate the  financial statements of  I-RES and its  subsidiaries, IRES  Residential
Properties Limited, IRES Fund Management Limited, IRES Residential Properties (Tara View) Limited and IRES Residential Properties
(Orion) Limited. I-RES controls these subsidiaries by virtue of its 100% shareholding in the companies. All intragroup assets and
liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full
on consolidation.

 

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by I-RES. I-RES controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns
from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect these returns through its power over the entity. The financial
information of subsidiaries (except owners’ management companies) is  included in the consolidated financial statements from  the
date on which control commences until the date on  which control ceases. I-RES does not consolidate owners’ management  companies
in which it holds majority voting rights. For further details, please refer to note 23.

 c. Investment properties and investment properties under development

Investment properties

The Group considers its income properties to be investment properties under IAS 40, Investment Property (“IAS 40”) and has chosen
the fair value model to account for its investment properties in the consolidated financial statements. Under IFRS 13, Fair Value
Measurement (“IFRS 13”),  fair value is  defined as the  price that  would be received  to sell an  asset or paid  to transfer  a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

 

Investment properties are treated as acquired at the time when the Group assumes the significant risks and returns of  ownership,
which normally occurs when the conveyancing contract has been performed by both buyer and seller and the contract has been deemed
to have become unconditional and  completed. Investment properties are  deemed to have been acquired  when the buyer has  assumed
control of ownership and the contract has been completed.

 

Investment properties comprise  investment interests  held in  land and  buildings (including  integral equipment)  held for  the
purpose of producing rental income, capital appreciation or both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business.

 

All investment properties  are initially  recorded at  cost, which includes  transaction and  other acquisition  costs, at  their
respective acquisition dates and are subsequently stated at fair value at each reporting date, with any gain or loss arising from
a change in fair value recognised through profit or loss in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other  comprehensive
income for the period. Gains  and losses (calculated as the  difference between the net proceeds  from disposal and the  carrying
amount of  the item)  arising on  the  disposal of  investment properties  are also  recognised  through profit  or loss  in  the
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

‘2.    Material Accounting Policies (continued)

      ‘c)    Investment properties and investment properties under development (continued)

 

The fair value of investment properties is determined by qualified independent valuers at each reporting date, in accordance with
the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (“RICS”) Valuation Standards and IFRS 13. Each independent valuer holds a recognised
relevant professional qualification and has recent experience in the locations and segments of the investment properties  valued.
At each reporting date, management undertakes a review of its investment property valuations to assess the continuing validity of
the underlying assumptions,  such as  future income  streams and  yields used in  the independent  valuation report,  as well  as
property valuation movements when compared to the prior year valuation report and holds discussions with the independent valuer.

 

Investment properties under development

Investment properties under development include those properties, or  components thereof, that will undergo activities that  will
take a substantial period of time to prepare the properties for their intended use as income properties.

 

The cost of  a development  property that  is an asset  acquisition comprises  the amount  of cash, or  the fair  value of  other
consideration, paid  to  acquire the  property,  including transaction  costs.  Subsequent to  the  acquisition, the  cost  of  a
development property includes costs  that are directly attributable  to these assets, including  development costs and  borrowing
costs. These costs are capitalised when the activities necessary  to prepare an asset for development or redevelopment begin  and
continue until the date that  construction is substantially complete  and all necessary occupancy  and related permits have  been
received, whether or  not the  space is  leased. Borrowing  costs are calculated  using the  Company’s weighted  average cost  of
borrowing.

 

Properties under development are valued  at fair value by  qualified independent valuers at each  reporting date with fair  value
adjustments recognised in profit or loss in the consolidated statement  of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. In  the
case of investment property under development, the valuation approach applied is the “residual method”, with a deduction for  the
costs necessary to complete the development together with an allowance for the remaining risk.

 

Development land

Development land is also stated at fair value by qualified independent valuers at each reporting date with fair value adjustments
recognised in profit or  loss in the  consolidated statement of  profit or loss and  other comprehensive income.  In the case  of
development land, the valuation  approach applied is  the comparable sales  approach, which considers  recent sales activity  for
similar land parcels in the same or  similar markets. Land values are estimated using  either a per acre or per buildable  square
foot basis based on highest and best use. Such values are applied to the Group’s properties after adjusting for factors  specific
to the site, including its location, highest and best use, zoning, servicing and configuration.

Key estimations of inherent uncertainty in investment property valuations

The fair values derived  are based on  anticipated market values  for the properties,  being the estimated  amount that would  be
received from a sale of the assets in an orderly transaction between market participants. The valuation of the Group’s investment
property portfolio is inherently subjective as it requires, among other factors, assumptions to be made regarding the ability  of
existing residents to meet their rental obligations over the entire  life of their leases, the estimation of the expected  rental
income in the  future, an assessment  of a property’s  ability to remain  an attractive technical  configuration to existing  and
prospective residents in a changing market and  a judgement to be reached on the  attractiveness of a building, its location  and
the surrounding environment. While  these and other similar  matters are market-standard considerations  in determining the  fair
value of  a property  in accordance  with the  RICS  methodology, they  are all  subjective assessments  of future  outturns  and
macroeconomic factors, which are outside of the Group’s control  or influence and therefore may prove to be inaccurate  long-term
forecasts.

 

As a result  of all  these factors, the  ultimate valuation  the Group places  on its  investment properties is  subject to  some
uncertainty and may not turn out to be accurate,  particularly in times of macroeconomic volatility. The RICS property  valuation
methodology is considered by the Board to be the valuation technique most suited to the measurement of the fair value of property
investments. It is also the primary measurement of fair value that all major and reputable property market participants use  when
valuing a property  investment. See note  5 for a  detailed discussion of  the significant assumptions,  estimates and  valuation
methods used.

 

 d. Property asset acquisition

At the time of acquisition of a property or a portfolio of investment properties, the Group evaluates whether the acquisition  is
a business combination or asset acquisition. The Group accounts  for business combinations using the acquisition method when  the
acquired set of activities and assets meets the definition of a business and control is transferred to the Group. In  determining
whether a particular set  of activities and assets  is a business, the  Group assesses whether the  set of assets and  activities
acquired includes, at  a minimum,  an input and  substantive process  and whether  the acquired set  has the  ability to  produce
outputs.

 

The Group has  an option to  apply a ‘concentration  test’ that permits  a simplified assessment  of whether an  acquired set  of
activities and assets is not a  business. The optional concentration test  is met if substantially all  of the fair value of  the
gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets.

 

When an acquisition does not represent a business as defined under IFRS 3, the Group classifies these properties, or portfolio of
properties, as an asset acquisition. Identifiable  assets acquired and liabilities assumed  in an asset acquisition are  measured
initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Acquisition-related transaction costs are capitalised to the property.

 e. Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and mainly comprise of the leased  head
office, head office fixtures  and fittings and information  technology hardware. These items  are depreciated on a  straight-line
basis over their estimated useful lives; the right of use building  has a useful life of 20 years and the hardware, fixtures  and
fittings have a useful life ranging from three to ten years.

 

 

‘2.    Material Accounting Policies (continued)

 f. IFRS 9, Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”)

Financial assets and financial liabilities

Under IFRS 9, financial assets and  financial liabilities are initially recognised at  fair value and are subsequently  accounted
for based on  their classification  as described  below. Their  classification depends  on the  purpose for  which the  financial
instruments were acquired or issued, their characteristics and I-RES’ designation of such instruments. The standard requires that
all financial assets and financial liabilities  be classified as fair value through  profit or loss (“FVTPL”), amortised cost  or
fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”).

 

Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities 

The Group derecognises a financial asset when:

  ▪ the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; or
  ▪ it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which either:

       ◦ substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred; or
       ◦ the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain
         control of the financial asset.

 

When the  Group enters  into transactions  whereby it  transfers assets  recognised in  its consolidated  statement of  financial
position but retains either all or substantially all of the  risks and rewards of the transferred assets, the transferred  assets
are not derecognised.

 

The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expire. The Group also
derecognises a financial liability when  its terms are modified  and the cash flows of  the modified liability are  substantially
different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value.

 

On derecognition of a  financial liability, the difference  between the carrying amount  extinguished and the consideration  paid
(including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognised in profit or loss.

 

Offsetting

Financial assets and financial liabilities  are offset and the  net amount presented in  the consolidated statement of  financial
position when, and only when, the Group currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to
settle them on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include  cash and short-term investments  with an original maturity of  three months or less.  Interest
earned or accrued on these financial assets is included in other income.

 

Other receivables

Such receivables arise when I-RES  provides services to a third  party, such as a resident,  and are included in current  assets,
except for those  with maturities more  than 12 months  after the consolidated  statement of financial  position date, which  are
classified as non-current  assets. Loans  and other  receivables are  included in other  assets initially  at fair  value on  the
consolidated statement of financial position and are subsequently accounted for at amortised cost.

 

Other liabilities

Such financial liabilities are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently accounted for at amortised cost and include  all
liabilities other than derivatives. Derivatives are at fair value through other comprehensive income.

 

FVTPL

Financial instruments in this category  are recognised initially and  subsequently at fair value.  Gains and losses arising  from
changes in fair value are presented  within gain on derivative financial instruments  in the consolidated statement of profit  or
loss in the period  in which they  arise. Financial assets  and liabilities at FVTPL  are classified as  current, except for  the
portion expected to be realised or paid more than 12 months after the consolidated statement of financial position date, which is
classified as non-current. Derivatives are categorised as FVTPL unless designated as hedges.

 

 

 

 

 

2.    Material Accounting Policies (continued)

      ‘f)   IFRS 9, Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”) (continued)

Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

The Group utilises derivative  financial instruments to hedge  foreign exchange risk and  interest rate risk exposures.  Embedded
derivatives are separated from the host contract and accounted for  separately if the host contract is not a financial asset  and
certain criteria are met.

 

Derivatives are initially measured at fair  value. Subsequent to initial recognition,  derivatives are remeasured at fair  value,
with changes recognised through profit or loss, unless hedge accounting is applied.

 

The Group designates certain derivatives  as hedging instruments to  hedge the variability in  cash flows associated with  highly
probable forecast transactions arising from changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates.

 

At inception of designated hedging relationships, the Group documents the risk management objective and strategy for  undertaking
the hedge. The  Group also documents  the economic relationship  between the hedged  item and the  hedging instrument,  including
whether the changes in cash flows of the hedged item and hedging instrument are expected to offset each other.

 

Cash flow hedges

When a derivative is designated as a  cash flow hedging instrument, hedge accounting is  used in line with IFRS 9. The  effective
portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and accumulated in the
hedging reserve. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative that is recognised in OCI is limited to the
cumulative change in  fair value  of the hedged  item, determined  on a present  value basis,  from inception of  the hedge.  Any
ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

 

For all hedged forecast transactions,  the amount accumulated in  the hedging reserve is reclassified  to financing costs in  the
same period or periods during which the hedged expected future cash flows affect profit or loss.

 

If the hedge no longer meets the  criteria for hedge accounting or the hedging  instrument is sold, expires, is terminated or  is
exercised, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively.

 

If the hedged future  cash flows are  no longer expected to  occur, then the  amounts that have been  accumulated in the  hedging
reserve are immediately reclassified to profit or loss.

 g. IFRS 16, Leases

At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a contract  is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a  lease
if the contract conveys the right to control the use of  an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for  consideration.
To assess whether a contract  conveys the right to  control the use of an  identified asset, the Group  uses the definition of  a
lease in IFRS 16.

 

 

 

 

2.    Material Accounting Policies (continued)

      ‘g)   IFRS 16, Leases (continued)

As a lessee

When the Group acts as  a lessee, at commencement  or on modification of  a contract that contains  a lease component, the  Group
allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of its relative stand-alone price.

 

The Group recognises  a right-of-use  asset and  a lease  liability at the  lease commencement  date. The  right-of-use asset  is
initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at  or
before the commencement  date, plus  any initial direct  costs incurred  and an  estimate of costs  to dismantle  and remove  the
underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.

 

The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated  using the straight-line method from the  commencement date to the end of  the
lease term, unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Group by the end of the lease term or the cost of
the right-of-use asset reflects  that the Group  will exercise a  purchase option. In  that case the  right-of-use asset will  be
depreciated over  the useful  life of  the underlying  asset. In  addition, the  right-of-use asset  is periodically  reduced  by
impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability.

 

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement  date,
discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or,  if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s  incremental
borrowing rate. Generally, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.

 

The Group determines its incremental borrowing rate by obtaining interest rates from various external financing sources and makes
certain adjustments to reflect the terms of the lease and the type of asset leased.

 

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following:

  ▪ fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments;
  ▪ variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the  commencement
    date;
  ▪ amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and
  ▪ the exercise price under a purchase option  that the Group is reasonably certain  to exercise, lease payments in an  optional
    renewal period if the Group is reasonably  certain to exercise an extension option  and penalties for early termination of  a
    lease unless the Group is reasonably certain not to terminate early.

 

The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in
future lease payments arising  from a change in  an index or rate,  if there is a  change in the Group’s  estimate of the  amount
expected to be  payable under a  residual value guarantee,  if the Group  changes its assessment  of whether it  will exercise  a
purchase, extension or termination option or if there is a revised in-substance fixed lease payment.

 

When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use
asset or is recorded through profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

 

 

2.    Material Accounting Policies (continued)

      ‘g)   IFRS 16, Leases (continued)

 

The Group presents right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property in ‘Property, plant and  equipment’
and lease liabilities in ‘Lease liability’ in the statement of financial position.

 

As a lessor

When the Group acts as a lessor, it determines at lease commencement whether each lease is a finance lease or an operating lease.
To classify each lease, the Group makes an overall assessment  of whether the lease transfers to the lessee substantially all  of
the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying assets.  If this is the case, then the lease is a finance  lease;
if not, then it is  an operating lease. As  part of the assessment,  the Group considers certain  indicators such as whether  the
lease is for the major part of the economic life of the asset, the present value of lease payments and any option included in the
lease. The Group has determined that all of its leases are operating leases.

 

When the Group  is an intermediate  lessor, it accounts  for its interests  in the head  lease and the  sub-lease separately.  It
assesses the lease classification of a sub-lease with reference to  the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease, not  with
reference to the underlying  asset. If a  head lease is  a short-term lease to  which the Group  applies the exemption  described
above, then it classifies the sub-lease as an operating lease.

 

On modification of a contract that contains a lease component and a non-lease component, I-RES allocates the consideration in the
contract to each of the components on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices. 

 

Tenant inducements

Incentives such as  cash, rent-free  periods and  move-in allowances  may be  provided to  lessees who  enter into  a lease.  The
incentives are written off on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease as a reduction of rental revenue.

 

Early termination of leases

When the Group receives rent loss payments from a tenant for the early termination of a lease, it is reflected in the  accounting
period in which the rent loss payment occurred.

 

Expected credit loss (“ECL”)

The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses  on trade receivables and other financial assets. The amount  of
ECL is updated at each  reporting date to reflect changes  in credit risk since initial  recognition of the respective  financial
instrument. Loss  allowances for  trade receivables  (including lease  receivables) are  always measured  at an  amount equal  to
lifetime ECLs. Lifetime ECLs  are the ECLs that  result from all possible  default events over the  expected life of a  financial
instrument. When determining whether the credit risk of  a financial asset has increased significantly since initial  recognition
and when estimating ECLs, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue
cost or  effort. This  includes both  quantitative and  qualitative information  and analysis,  based on  the Group’s  historical
experience and informed credit assessment, that includes forward-looking information.

 

The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 30 days past due.

 

For individual residential customers, the Group has a policy of writing off the gross carrying amount when the financial asset is
30 days past due based on historical experience of recoveries of similar assets.

 

 

 

 

 

2.    Material Accounting Policies (continued)

 h. IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“IFRS 15”)

I-RES retains substantially all of the  risks and benefits of ownership of  its investment properties and therefore accounts  for
leases with its tenants as  operating leases. Rent represents lease  revenue earned from the conveyance  of the right to use  the
property, including access to common areas, to  a lessee for an agreed period of  time. The contract also contains a  performance
obligation that requires I-RES to maintain the common areas to  an agreed standard. This right of use and performance  obligation
is governed by a single rental  contract with the tenant. In  accordance with IFRS 16 Leases,  I-RES has evaluated the lease  and
non-lease components of  its revenue  and has  determined that common  area maintenance  services constitute  a single  non-lease
element, which is accounted  for as one performance  obligation under IFRS 15  and is recognised separately  to Rental Income  as
revenue under IFRS 15.

 

Revenue includes amounts earned from tenants under the rental contract which are allocated to the lease and non-lease  components
based on relative stand-alone  selling prices. The stand-alone  selling prices of  the lease components  are determined using  an
adjusted market assessment approach and the stand-alone selling prices  of the service components are determined using the  input
method based on the expected costs plus an estimated market-based margin for similar services.

 

Rental income from the operating lease component  is recognised on a straight-line basis  over the lease term in accordance  with
IFRS 16 Leases. When I-RES provides incentives to its tenants, the cost of such incentives is recognised over the lease term,  on
a straight-line basis, as a reduction of revenue.

 

Revenue from maintenance  services represents  the service  component of  the REIT’s  rental contracts  and is  accounted for  in
accordance with  IFRS  15. These services  consist  primarily of  the  recovery of  utilities,  property and  other  common  area
maintenance and amenity costs where I-RES has determined it is acting as a principal.

 

These services constitute a single non-lease component, which is accounted for as one performance obligation under IFRS 15 as the
individual activities that comprise these  services are not distinct  in the context of  the contract. The individual  activities
undertaken to meet the performance obligation may vary from time  to time but cumulatively the activities undertaken to meet  the
performance obligation are relatively consistent over time. The tenant simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided
under the performance obligation as I-RES performs the obligation and consequently revenue is recognised over time, typically  on
a monthly basis, as the services are provided.

 i. Operating segments

The Group operates and is managed as one business segment, namely property investment, with all investment properties located  in
Ireland. The operating segment is  reported in a manner  consistent with the internal reporting  provided to the chief  operating
decision-maker, which has been identified as the I-RES Board.

 j. Statement of cash flows

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and balances with banks. Investing and financing activities that do not require
the use of cash or cash equivalents  are excluded from the consolidated statement of  cash flows and are disclosed separately  in
the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Interest paid is classified as financing activities.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.    Material Accounting Policies (continued)

 k. Income taxes

Current tax

Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year and any adjustment to the
tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. The amount  of current tax payable or receivable is the best estimate  of
the tax amount expected to be paid  or received that reflects uncertainty related to  income taxes, if any. It is measured  using
tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Current tax also includes any tax arising from dividends.

 

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if certain criteria are met.

 

I-RES elected for REIT  status on 31 March  2014. As a result,  from that date I-RES  does not pay Irish  corporation tax on  the
profits and gains from its qualifying rental business in Ireland, provided it meets certain conditions.

 

Corporation tax is payable in the normal way in respect  of income and gains from any residual business (generally including  any
property trading business) not included in the  Property Rental Business. I-RES is liable to  pay other taxes such as VAT,  stamp
duty, land tax, local property tax and payroll taxes in the normal way.

 

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is  recognised in  respect of  temporary differences  between the  carrying amounts  of assets  and liabilities  for
financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

 

The measurement of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that would follow the manner in which the Group expects, at the end
of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax is measured at  the
tax rates that are expected to be  applied to temporary differences when they  reverse, using tax rates enacted or  substantively
enacted at the reporting date.

 l. Equity and share issue costs

The equity of I-RES consists of ordinary shares issued. Shares issued are recorded at the date of issuance. Direct issue costs in
respect of the issue of shares are accounted for as a deduction from retained earnings. The excess consideration for shares above
nominal value is recorded as share premium.

 m. Net asset value (“NAV”)

The NAV is calculated as the value of the Group’s assets less the value of its liabilities, measured in accordance with IFRS  and
in particular will include the Group’s property assets at their fair value assessed independently by valuers.

 n. Share-based payments

I-RES has  determined that  the  options and  restricted  share units  issued to  senior  executives qualify  as  “equity-settled
share-based payment transactions” as per IFRS 2. In addition, any  options issued to the directors and employees also qualify  as
equity-settled share-based payment transactions. The fair value of the  options measured on the grant date will be expensed  over
the graded vesting term with  a corresponding increase in equity.  The fair value for all  options granted is measured using  the
Black-Scholes model.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.    Material Accounting Policies (continued)

 

       ‘n)   Share-based payments (continued)

 

The grant-date fair value  of restricted share units  issued to senior employees  is generally recognised as  an expense, with  a
corresponding increase in equity, over the vesting period of the awards. The fair value for all restricted share units granted is
measured using a Monte  Carlo simulation. The amount  recognised as an expense  is adjusted to reflect  the number of awards  for
which the  related service  and non-market  performance  conditions are  expected to  be  met, such  that the  amount  ultimately
recognised is based on the number of  awards that meet the related service  and non-market performance conditions at the  vesting
date. For  share-based payment  awards with  non-vesting conditions,  the grant-date  fair value  of the  share-based payment  is
measured to reflect such conditions and there is no true-up for differences between expected and actual outcomes.

 o. Property taxes

Property taxes are paid annually and recognised as an expense evenly throughout the year.

 p. Security deposits

Security deposits are amounts received from tenants at the beginning of  a tenancy. When a tenant is no longer in occupancy,  the
Group will assess whether there was damage to the property above  normal wear and tear for which deductions may be made to  their
deposit. Once the inspections and repairs are calculated, the remaining security deposit is returned to the tenant.

 q. Pension

The Company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A  defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which  a
company pays fixed  contributions into a  separate entity.  Once the contributions  have been  paid, the Company  has no  further
obligations. The contributions  are recognised  as an expense  when they  are due. The  amounts that  are not paid  are shown  as
accruals in the  consolidated statement of  financial position. The  assets of  the plan are  held separately from  those of  the
Company in an independently administered fund.

 r. Assets held for sale

Non-current assets are  classified as held-for-sale  if it is  highly probable  that the value  of the assets  will be  recovered
primarily through sale rather than through continuing use.

 

Such assets are generally measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Impairment losses  on
initial calculation  as  held-for-sale and  subsequent  gains or  losses  on remeasurement  or  disposal are  recognised  in  the
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

 s. Impact expected from new or amended standards

New and amended standards adopted by the Group

The below amended standard became applicable  for the current reporting period. However,  the adoption of the amended  accounting
standard did not result in any material changes.

  • IAS 21 Amendments – effective from 1 January 2025

The following standards and amendments are under review and are not expected to have a significant impact on reported results  or
disclosures of the  Group. They were  not effective  at the financial  year end 31  December 2025  and have not  been applied  in
preparing these consolidated financial statements. The Group will apply the new standards from the effective date. The  potential
impact of these standards on the Group is under review.

 

 

Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments – Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7

IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

Effective Date 1 January 2027

 

The Group is currently assessing how the application of IFRS 18 will impact the future presentation of the consolidated financial
statements. The adoption  should not affect  the totals of  the Group’s assets,  liabilities, equity, income  or expenses. It  is
expected that the  presentation of the  categories making up  the statement  of profit or  loss will be  affected and  additional
management performance measures may be disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 3. Critical Accounting Estimates, Assumptions and Judgements

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance  with IFRS requires the use of estimates, assumptions  and
judgements that in  some cases relate  to matters that  are inherently  uncertain and which  affect the amounts  reported in  the
consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Areas of such estimation include, but are not limited to, valuation  of
investment properties and  valuation of  financial instruments.  Changes to  estimates and  assumptions may  affect the  reported
amounts of assets  and liabilities  and the  disclosure of  contingent assets and  liabilities at  the date  of the  consolidated
financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of  revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results  could
differ from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

The valuation estimate of investment properties is deemed to be significant. See note 19(a) and note 5 for a detailed  discussion
of valuation methods and the significant assumptions and estimates used.

 5. Investment Properties

Valuation basis

Investment properties are carried  at fair value,  which is the  amount at which the  individual properties could  be sold in  an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, considering the highest and best use of the asset,  with
any gain or loss arising from a change in fair value recognised through profit or loss in the consolidated statement of profit or
loss and other comprehensive income for the year.

The Group uses Savills and CBRE as external independent valuers. The Group’s investment property is rotated between these valuers
on a periodic basis. The valuers fair valued all of the Group’s investment properties as at 31 December 2025. The valuers  employ
qualified valuation  professionals  who have  recent  experience in  the  location and  category  of the  respective  properties.
Valuations are prepared on a bi-annual basis at the interim reporting date and the annual reporting date.

The information provided to the valuers and the assumptions, valuation methodologies and models used by the valuers are  reviewed
by management. The  valuers meet  with the  Audit Committee  and discuss directly  the valuation  results as  at 30  June and  31
December. The Board determines  the Group’s valuation policies  and procedures for property  valuations. The Board decides  which
independent valuers to appoint for the external valuation of the Group’s properties. Selection criteria include market knowledge,
reputation, independence and whether professional standards are maintained.

Investment property producing income

For investment  property producing  income, the  income approach/yield  methodology involves  applying market-derived  yields  to
current and  projected future  income streams.  These yields  and  future income  streams are  derived from  comparable  property
transactions and are considered  to be the key  inputs in the valuation.  Other factors that are  taken into account include  the
tenure of the lease, tenancy details and planning, building and environmental factors that might affect the property. New  rental
regulation will take effect from 1 March 2026 which we expect to improve the underlying performance of the portfolio and lead  to
greater liquidity in the market.

Development land

In the case of development land, the approach applied is the comparable sales approach, which considers recent sales activity for
similar land parcels in the same or  similar markets. Land values are estimated using  either a per acre or per buildable  square
foot basis based on highest and best use. Such values are applied to the Group’s properties after adjusting for factors  specific
to the site, including its location, zoning, servicing and configuration.

Assets held for sale

At 31 December 2025, I-RES  has identified 21 units  across 5 properties as  assets held for sale  amounting to €6.5 million  (31
December 2024 €4.0 million). Management has committed to a plan to sell these properties, which are available for immediate sale,
and we expect the disposals to close in the next twelve months.

Information about fair value measurements using unobservable inputs (Level 3)

At 31 December 2025, the Group considers that all of its investment properties fall within Level 3 fair value as defined by  IFRS
13. As outlined in IFRS 13, a  Level 3 fair value recognises that the  significant inputs and considerations made in  determining
the fair value of property investments cannot be derived from publicly available data as the valuation methodology in respect  of
a property also has to rely on  a number of unobservable inputs including  technical reports, legal data, building costs,  rental
analysis (including rent moratorium),  professional opinion on profile,  lot size, layout and  presentation of accommodation.  In
addition, the valuers utilise proprietary databases maintained in respect of properties similar to the assets being valued.

The Group tests the  reasonableness of all  significant unobservable inputs,  including yields and  stabilised net rental  income
(“Stabilised NRI”) used in the valuation and reviews the results with the independent valuers for all valuations. The  Stabilised
NRI represents cash flows from property revenue less  property operating expenses, adjusted for market-based assumptions such  as
market rents, short term and long term vacancy rates, bad debts, management fees and repairs and maintenance. These cashflows are
estimates for current and projected future income streams.

 

 

 

‘5.   Investment Properties (continued)

Sensitivity analysis

Stabilised NRI and “Equivalent Yields” are key inputs in the valuation model used.

Equivalent Yield is the rate of return  on a property investment based on current  and projected future income streams that  such
property investment will generate. This is derived by the external valuers and is used to set the term and reversionary yields.

For example, completed properties are valued mainly using a term  and reversion model. For the existing rental contract or  term,
estimated Stabilised NRI is based on the expected rents from residents over the period to the next lease break option or  expiry.
After this period,  the reversion, estimated  Stabilised NRI is  based on expectations  from current market  conditions. Thus,  a
decrease in the  estimated Stabilised NRI  will decrease the  fair value  and an increase  in the estimated  Stabilised NRI  will
increase the fair value.

The Equivalent Yields magnify the effect of a change in Stabilised  NRI, with a lower yield resulting in a greater effect on  the
fair value of investment properties than a higher Equivalent Yield.

For investment properties producing income, properties held for sale and investment properties under development, an increase  of
1% in the  Equivalent Yield would  have the  impact of a  €176 million  reduction in fair  value while  a decrease of  1% in  the
Equivalent Yield would result  in a fair  value increase of €247  million. An increase  between 1% - 4%  in Stabilised NRI  would
result in a fair value increase extending from €12 million to €50 million respectively in fair value, while a decrease between 1%
- 4% in Stabilised NRI would have an impact ranging  from €12 million to €50 million reduction respectively. I-RES believes  that
this range of change in Stabilised NRI is a reasonable estimate in the next twelve months based on expected changes in net rental
income.

The direct operating expenses recognised in the consolidated statement  of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for  the
Group is €18.8 million for the year  ended 31 December 2025 (31 December  2024: €19.8 million), arising from investment  property
that generated  rental income  during the  period. The  direct  operating expenses  are comprised  of the  following  significant
categories: property taxes, utilities, repairs and maintenance, wages, insurance, service charges and IT costs.

The direct operating expenses recognised in the consolidated statement  of profit or loss and other comprehensive income  arising
from investment property that did not  generate rental income for the  year ended 31 December 2025  and 31 December 2024 was  not
material.

An investment property  is comprised  of various components,  including undeveloped  land and vacant  residential and  commercial
units; no direct operating costs were specifically allocated to these separate components.

Total                        347,029          355,197

The Revolving Credit Facility of  €500 million is secured by  a floating charge over assets  of the Company and IRES  Residential
Properties Limited and also a fixed charge  over the shares held by the Company  in IRES Residential Properties Limited and  IRES
Fund Management Limited on a pari passu basis.

In March 2025, I-RES terminated the  existing €500 million revolving credit facility  provided by Barclays Bank Ireland PLC,  The
Governor and Company of the Bank of Ireland, Allied Irish Banks P.L.C. and HSBC Bank PLC. This facility was refinanced through  a
new 5 year Revolving Credit Facility of €500 million maturing in March 2030. This facility is being provided by The Governor  and
Company of the Bank of Ireland, Allied Irish Banks P.L.C, ABN Amro Bank N.V and Barclays Bank Ireland P.L.C. The new RCF includes
a €200 million uncommitted accordion facility. I-RES  has entered into €275 million of  interest rate swaps, as outlined in  note
18, associated with this new facility.

I-RES converted the above RCF, signed in March 2025, into  a Sustainability Linked Loan (“SLL”) that aligns with the Loan  Market
Association’s March 2025 principles for sustainable  finance on 18 November 2025. The  SLL ties financing costs to  independently
verified Sustainability  Performance Indicators.  This has  reduced the  margin rate  to 2.0%  plus the  one-month EURIBOR  rate.
Depending on performance against the KPI’s  as set out under the SLL  the margin may increase or decrease  by 5bps or at a  point
between, i.e. a margin of between 1.95%-2.05%. 

 

‘10. Bank indebtedness (continued)

A commitment fee is charged on the undrawn loan amount of the RCF. The effective interest rate in the period for the RCF is 4.70%
(2024: 4.78%).

The financial covenants in relation to the RCF principally relate  to Loan to Value and Interest Cover Ratio. I-RES has  complied
with all its debt  financial covenants to  which it was subject  during the period.  Gross Loan to Value  has remained below  the
required 50% at 44.2%. Interest Cover has remained above the requirement of 200% at 244%.

11. Private Placement Notes

On 11  March 2020,  I-RES successfully  closed the  issue of  €130 million  notes and  IRES Residential  Properties Limited,  its
subsidiary, closed the issue of USD $75 million notes on a private placement basis (collectively, the “Notes”). The Notes have  a
weighted average fixed interest rate of 1.92% inclusive of a  USD/Euro swap and an effective interest rate of 1.92%. Interest  is
paid semi-annually on 10 March and 10 September.

The Notes have been placed in four tranches:

The Notes are secured by a floating charge over the assets of the Group and a fixed charge over the shares held by the Company in
IRES Residential Properties Limited on a pari passu basis. The financial covenants in place in relation to the Private  Placement
Notes are aligned with the RCF. See note 10 for further details.

 

 

 

12. Share-based Compensation

      a. Options

Options are issuable pursuant to I-RES’  share-based compensation plan, namely, the  long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”). In  2025,
the remaining outstanding share options expired. As at 31 December 2025, the maximum number of additional options, or  Restricted
Share Units (“RSU”) issuable under the LTIP is 48,729,120 (31 December 2024: 44,984,779).

The fair value of options has been determined as at the grant date using the Black-Scholes model.

 b. Restricted Stock Unit Awards

Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) were first awarded in the year ended 31 December 2020. Under the Remuneration Policy,  recipients
of RSUs are granted a variable number of equity instruments depending on their salary. The awards are subject to vesting  against
market and non-market based conditions. A summary of the awards is  set out in the table below. All awards are outstanding at  31
December 2025.

During the period, 743,382 awards granted did not vest and therefore lapsed.

There is between a 24 month and 61  month holding period post vesting, but this  is not subject to measurement as all  conditions
terminate on vesting. The LTIP awards are measured as follows:

Market-based condition: The  expected performance  of I-RES shares  over the  vesting period is  calculated using  a Monte  Carlo
simulation. Inputs are share price volatility for I-RES and  the average growth rate. These inputs are calculated with  reference
to relevant historical data and financial models. It should be recognised that the assumption of an average growth rate is not  a
prediction of the actual level of returns that will be achieved. The volatility assumption in the distribution gives a measure of
the range of outcomes that may occur on either side of this average value. This is used to amortise the fair value of an expected
cost over the vesting period. On vesting, any difference in amounts accrued versus actual is amended through reserves.

 

 

 

 

 

‘12. Share-based Compensation (continued)

Non-market-based conditions: The  fair value of  the shares to  be issued is  determined using the  grant-date market price.  The
expected number of shares is calculated based on the expectations of the number of shares which may vest at the vesting date  and
amortised over the  vesting period. At  each reporting date,  the calculation  of the number  of shares is  revised according  to
current expectations or performance.

The awards are subject to various  criteria as outlined in the  table above. The TSR measure  is relative to constituents of  the
FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Europe Developed Index for  the 2022 awards. The 2023-2025 awards  are relative to the residential subsector  of
this index for TSR. Results and inputs are summarised in the table below:

The total share-based compensation expense relating to  options for the year ended 31  December 2025 was €nil (31 December  2024:
€nil) and total share-based compensation expense relating to restricted stock unit awards for the year ended 31 December 2025 was
€415,000 (31 December 2024: €305,000).

13. Shareholders' Equity

All equity  shares outstanding  are fully  paid and  are voting  shares. Equity  shares represent  a shareholder’s  proportionate
undivided beneficial interest in I-RES.  No equity share has any  preference or priority over another.  No shareholder has or  is
deemed to have any right of ownership in any of the assets of I-RES. Each share confers the right to cast one vote at any meeting
of shareholders and to participate pro rata in any distributions by  I-RES and, in the event of termination of I-RES, in the  net
assets of I-RES remaining after satisfaction of all liabilities. Shares are to be issued in registered form and are transferable.
In 2025, I-RES conducted a €5 million  share buyback which resulted in the  recognition and immediate cancellation of €5  million
treasury shares.

The number of shares authorised is as follows:

For the year ended            31 December 2025 31 December 2024

Cash and cash equivalents include  cash at bank held  in current accounts. The  management of cash is  discussed in note 19.  The
Group holds funds in excess of its regulatory minimum capital requirement at all times.

15. Revenue from Investment Properties

I-RES generates revenue  primarily from  the rental income  from investment  properties. Rental income  represents lease  revenue
earned from the conveyance of the right to use the property,  including access to common areas, to a lessee for an agreed  period
of time. The  rental contract  also contains an  undertaking that  common areas  and amenities will  be maintained  to a  certain
standard. This right of use of the property and maintenance  performance obligation is governed by a single rental contract  with
the tenant. I-RES has  evaluated the lease and  non-lease components of its  rental revenue and has  determined that common  area
maintenance services constitute a single non-lease  element, which is accounted for as  one performance obligation under IFRS  15
and is recognised separately to Rental Income.

18. Realised and Unrealised Gains and Losses on Derivative Financial Instruments

Cross-currency swap

On 12 February 2020, I-RES entered into  a cross-currency swap to (i) hedge the  US-based loan of $75 million into €68.9  million
effective 11 March 2020 and (ii) convert the fixed interest rate on the USD-based loan to a fixed Euro interest rate, maturing on
10 March 2027 and 10 March 2030 (see note 11 for  derivative fixed rates). This hedging agreement is accounted for as a  cashflow
hedge in accordance  with the requirements  of IFRS 9.  Hedges are  measured for effectiveness  at each reporting  date with  the
effective portion being recognised in equity in the hedging  reserve and the ineffective portion being recognised through  profit
or loss.

For the year ended 31 December 2025,  the ineffective portion that has been recorded  in the consolidated statement of profit  or
loss and other comprehensive  income was a loss  of €17,000 (31 December  2024: €104,000). The fair  value loss of the  effective
portion of €6,172,000 (31 December  2024 gain of €4,095,000)  was included in the  cash flow hedge reserve  along with a loss  on
hedging of €10,000 (31  December 2024: gain  €418,000). The fair  value of the  cash flow hedge  was an asset  of €841,000 and  a
liability of €5,234,000 at 31 December 2025 (31 December 2024: asset of €2,767,000 and a liability of €nil).

Interest rate swap

In March 2025, I-RES terminated its existing interest rate swap  hedging arrangements in respect of its RCF (see further  details
in note 10) as the  facility was terminated and  replaced. The interest rate  swaps which had been  in place since December  2022
aggregated to €275 million until maturity of the RCF facility in April 2026, converting the cost on this portion of the  facility
into a fixed interest rate of 2.5% plus margin of 1.75%. 

I-RES entered into a new hedging arrangement in respect of  the refinanced RCF on 13 March 2025, specifically interest rate  swap
agreements aggregating to €275 million until maturity of the facility  in March 2030, converting the cost on this portion of  the
facility into a weighted fixed interest rate across all providers of 2.52% plus margin. See further details in note 10.

For the year ended 31 December 2025,  the ineffective portion that has been recorded  in the consolidated statement of profit  or
loss and other  comprehensive income  was €19,000 (31  December 2024:  €nil). The  fair value loss  of the  effective portion  of
€2,424,000 (31 December 2024: gain  of €1,730,000) has been recorded  in the consolidated statement of  profit or loss and  other
comprehensive income. The fair value  of the interest rate  swaps was an asset  of €111,000 and a  liability of €2,939,000 at  31
December 2025 (31 December 2024: asset of €3,000 and a liability of €1,557,000).

 

 

 

 

 

19. Financial Instruments, Investment Properties and Risk Management

      a. Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Investment Properties

The Group classifies and discloses  the fair value for each  class of financial instrument based  on the fair value hierarchy  in
accordance with IFRS 13. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes  between market value data obtained from independent sources  and
the Group’s own assumptions about market value. The hierarchy levels are defined below:

  ▪ Level 1 - Inputs based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
  ▪ Level 2 - Inputs based  on factors other than  quoted prices included in  Level 1 and may  include quoted prices for  similar
    assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted
    prices), such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals; and
  ▪ Level 3 - Inputs which are unobservable for the asset or liability and are typically based on the Group’s own assumptions  as
    there is little, if any, related market activity.

The Group’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgement
and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

The following table presents the  Group’s estimates of fair value  on a recurring basis based  on information available as at  31
December 2025, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall.

As at 31 December 2025, the fair value of the Group’s private placement debt is estimated to be €177.2 million (31 December 2024:
€175.3 million) due to changes in  interest rates since the private  placement debt was issued and  the impact of the passage  of
time on the fixed rate of the private placement debt. The fair value of the private placement debt is based on discounted  future
cash flows using rates that reflect current rates for similar financial instruments with similar duration, terms and  conditions,
which are considered Level  2 inputs. The private  placement debt is recorded  at amortised cost of  €192.8 million (31  December

(1) See note 5 for detailed information on the valuation methodologies and fair value reconciliation.

(2) The valuation  of the  interest rate  swap instrument  is determined  using widely  accepted valuation  techniques  including
discounted cash  flow  analysis  on the  expected  cash  flows  of the  derivatives.  The  fair value  is  determined  using  the
market-standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted variable cash receipts of the
derivatives. The variable  cash receipts  are based on  an expectation  of future interest  rates (forward  curves) derived  from
observable market interest rates. If the total mark-to-market value is positive, I-RES will include a current value adjustment to
reflect the credit risk of the counterparty and if the total mark-to-market value is negative, I-RES will include a current value
adjustment to reflect I-RES' own credit risk in the fair value measurement of the interest rate swap agreements.

(3) The cross-currency swaps are valued by constructing the cash flows of each side and then discounting them back to the present
using appropriate discount  factors, including consideration  of credit risk,  in those currencies.  The cash flows  of the  more
liquid quoted currency pair will be discounted using standard discount factors, while the cash flows of the less liquid  currency
pair will be discounted using cross-currency basis-adjusted discount  factors. Following discounting, the spot rate will be  used
to convert the present value amount of the non-valuation currency into the valuation currency.

 b. Risk Management

The main risks arising  from the Group’s financial  instruments are market  risk, interest rate risk,  liquidity risk and  credit
risk. The Group’s approach to managing these risks is summarised as follows:

Market risk

Market risk is the  risk that the fair  value or cash  flows of a financial  instrument will fluctuate due  to changes in  market
prices. Market risk reflects interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risks.

The Group’s  financial assets  currently  comprise short-term  bank  deposits, trade  receivables,  deposits on  acquisition  and
derivatives.

Short-term bank deposits are held to meet the cash flow needs of the Group. These are denominated in Euro. Therefore, exposure to
market risk in relation to these is limited to interest rate risk.

The Group also has private placement notes that are denoted  in USD. The Group’s risk management strategy is to mitigate  foreign
exchange variability to the extent that it is practicable and cost effective to do so. The Group utilises cross currency swaps to
hedge the foreign exchange risk associated with the  Group’s existing, fixed foreign-currency denominated borrowings. The use  of
cross-currency interest rate swaps is consistent with the  Group’s risk management strategy to effectively eliminate  variability
in the Group’s  functional currency  equivalent cash flows  on a  portion of  its borrowings due  to variability  in the  USD-EUR
exchange rate. The hedges protect the  Group against adverse variability in foreign  exchange rates and the effective portion  is
recognised in  equity in  the hedging  reserve, with  the ineffective  portion being  recognised through  profit or  loss  within
financing costs.

Derivatives designated as hedges against foreign  exchange risks are accounted for as  cash flow hedges. Hedges are measured  for
effectiveness at each accounting date and  the accounting treatment of changes  in fair value revised accordingly.  Specifically,
the Company is hedging (1) the foreign exchange  risk on the USD interest payments and  (2) the foreign exchange risk on the  USD
principal repayment of the USD borrowings at maturity. This  hedging relationship qualifies for foreign currency cash flow  hedge
accounting.

On 12 February 2020, I-RES entered into cross-currency swaps to (i)  exchange the USD loan of USD $75 million into €68.9  million
effective 11 March 2020 and (ii) convert the  fixed interest rate on the USD loan to  a fixed Euro interest rate, maturing on  10
March 2027 and 10 March 2030.

At the inception of the hedging relationship the Company has identified the following potential sources of hedge ineffectiveness:

  ▪ Movements in the  Company’s and hedging  counterparty’s credit spread  that would result  in movements in  fair value of  the
    hedging instrument that would not be reflected in the movements in the value of the hedged transactions.
  ▪ The possibility  of changes  to  the critical  terms  (e.g. reset  dates,  index mismatches,  payment  dates) of  the  hedged
    transaction due to a refinancing or debt  renegotiation such that they no longer  match those of the hedging instrument.  The
    Company would reflect such mismatch when modelling the hypothetical derivative and this could be a potential source of  hedge
    ineffectiveness.

Whilst sources of ineffectiveness do exist in the hedging relationship, the Company expects changes in value of both the  hedging
instrument and the hedged transaction to offset and systematically  move in opposite directions given that the critical terms  of
the hedging instrument and the hedged  transactions are closely aligned at inception  as described above. Therefore, the  Company
has qualitatively concluded that there is an economic relationship  between the hedging instrument and the hedged transaction  in
accordance with IFRS 9.

Master netting or similar agreements

The Group  enters into  derivative transactions  under  International Swaps  and Derivatives  Association (ISDA)  master  netting
agreements. In  general, under  these agreements  the  amounts owed  by each  counterparty on  a  single day  in respect  of  all
transactions outstanding in the same currency are aggregated into a single net amount that is payable by one party to the  other.
In certain circumstances, all outstanding transactions under the agreement are terminated, the termination value is assessed  and
only a  single net  amount is  payable in  settlement of  all transactions.  The ISDA  agreements do  not meet  the criteria  for
offsetting in the statement  of financial position. This  is because the  Group does not have  any currently legally  enforceable
right to offset recognised amounts, because the right to offset is enforceable only on the occurrence of future events.

The following table sets out the carrying amounts of recognised financial instruments that are subject to the above agreements.

    Managing interest rate benchmark reform and associated risks

The Group does not have  any exposures to Interbank Offered  Rates (“IBORs”) on its financial  instruments due to IBOR reform  as
fixed to fixed  rates are used.  IBOR reform does  not impact the  Group’s risk management  and hedge accounting.  The Group  has
EURIBOR on its RCF, which is not impacted by the interest rate benchmark reform.

Interest Rate Risk

With regard to the cost  of borrowing I-RES has used  and may continue to use  hedging where considered appropriate, to  mitigate
interest rate risk.

As at 31 December 2025, the drawn RCF was  €352.4 million. The interest on the RCF is paid  at a rate of 2.0% per annum plus  the
one-month or three-month EURIBOR rate (at the option of I-RES) or at a floor of zero if EURIBOR is negative. As previously noted,
on 13 March 2025 I-RES terminated  the existing interest rate swaps  and entered into new interest  rate swaps in respect of  the
refinanced RCF, aggregating  to €275 million  until maturity of  the new  facility, converting the  cost on this  portion of  the
facility into a fixed interest rate of 2.52% plus margin. As of the period end, approximately 85% of the Group’s total drawn debt
is now fixed against interest  rate volatility. The Company’s private  placement debt has a fixed  rate of 1.92%. For the  period
ended 31 December 2025, a 100-basis point change in interest rates would have the following effect:

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group may  encounter difficulties in accessing capital markets and refinancing its  financial
obligations as they come due.

The Group’s approach to managing  liquidity is to ensure, as  far as possible, that it  will always have sufficient liquidity  to
meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage
to the Group’s reputation. The Group monitors  the level of expected cash inflows  on trade and other receivables, together  with
expected cash outflows on trade and other payables and capital commitments.

The following tables show the Group’s contractual undiscounted maturities for its financial liabilities:

The carrying value of bank indebtedness and trade and other payables (other liabilities) approximates their fair value.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that: (i) counterparties to contractual financial obligations will default; or (ii) the possibility  that
the Group’s tenants may experience financial difficulty and be unable to meet their rental obligations.

The Group monitors its risk exposure regarding obligations with counterparties through the regular assessment of  counterparties’
credit positions.

The Group mitigates  the risk  of credit loss  with respect  to tenants  by evaluating the  creditworthiness of  new tenants  and
obtaining security deposits wherever permitted by legislation.

The Group monitors its collection experience on a monthly basis and ensures that a stringent policy is adopted to provide for all
past due  amounts. All  residential accounts  receivable balances  exceeding 30  days are  written off  to bad  debt expense  and
recognised in the  consolidated statement of  profit or  loss and other  comprehensive income. Subsequent  recoveries of  amounts
previously written off are credited in the consolidated statement  of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The  Group’s
allowance for expected credit loss amounted to a charge of €349,000  for the year ended 31 December 2025 and is recorded as  part
of property operating costs in  the consolidated statement of  profit or loss and other  comprehensive income (31 December  2024:
€145,000).

Cash and cash equivalents are held with  major Irish and European institutions which have  credit ratings between A- and A+.  The
Company deposits cash with  a number of individual  institutions to avoid  concentration of risk with  any one counterparty.  The
Group has also engaged the services of a depository to ensure the security of cash assets.

 

 

‘19.  Financial Instruments, Investment Properties and Risk Management (continued)

      ’b)  Risk management (continued)

Credit risk (continued)

Risk of counterparty default arising on derivative financial instruments is controlled by dealing with high-quality  institutions
and by a policy limiting the amount  of credit exposure to any one  bank or institution. Derivative financial instrument  counter
parties have credit ratings in the range of A- to A+.

Capital management

The Group’s objectives when  managing capital are to  safeguard its ability to  continue as a going  concern in order to  provide
returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to  maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost  of
capital.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, I-RES may  issue new shares or consider the sale of assets to reduce  debt.
I-RES, through the  Irish REIT Regime,  is restricted in  its use of  capital to making  investments in real  estate property  in
Ireland. I-RES intends to continue to make distributions if its results of operations and cash flows permit in the future.

The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain
future development of the business. At 31 December 2025, capital consists  of equity and debt and Group Net LTV was 43.6%  (2024:
44.4%). I-RES seeks to use gearing to enhance shareholder returns over the long term. The level of gearing is monitored carefully
by the Board.

The Board  monitors  the return  on  capital as  well  as the  level  of dividends  paid  to ordinary  shareholders.  Subject  to
distributable reserves, it  is the policy  of I-RES to  distribute at least  85% of the  Property Income of  its Property  Rental
Business for each accounting period as required under the REIT legislation.

20. Taxation

I-RES elected for REIT status on 31 March 2014. As a result, from that date the Group is exempt from paying Irish corporation tax
on the profits and gains it makes from qualifying rental businesses in Ireland provided it meets certain conditions.

Instead, dividends paid to shareholders in respect of the Property  Rental Business are treated for Irish tax purposes as  income
in the hands of shareholders. Corporation tax is still payable in the normal way in respect of income and gains from any residual
business (generally including any property trading business) not included  in the Property Rental Business. I-RES is also  liable
to pay other taxes such as VAT, stamp duty, local property tax and payroll taxes in the normal way.

Within the Irish REIT Regime, for corporation  tax purposes the Property Rental Business  is treated as a separate business  from
the residual business. A loss incurred by the Property Rental Business cannot be offset against profits of the residual business.

An Irish REIT is  required, subject to having  sufficient distributable reserves,  to distribute to its  shareholders (by way  of
dividend), on or before the filing date for  its tax return for the accounting period  in question, at least 85% of the  Property
Income of the Property Rental Business arising in each accounting period. Failure to meet this requirement would result in a  tax
charge calculated by reference to the  extent of the shortfall in  the dividend paid. A dividend paid  by an Irish REIT from  its
Property Rental Business is referred to as a property income distribution. Any normal dividend paid from the residual business by
the Irish REIT is referred to as a non-property income distribution dividend.

The Directors confirm that the Group has remained in compliance with  the Irish REIT Regime up to and including the date of  this
Report.

23. Related Party Transactions

Transactions with Key Management Personnel

For the purposes of  the disclosure requirements of  IAS 24, the term  ‘‘key management personnel’’ is  defined as those  persons
having authority for  planning, directing  and controlling  the activities  of the  Company. I-RES  has determined  that the  key
management personnel comprise the Board of Directors. See note 28 for further details on remuneration.

Owners’ management companies not consolidated

As a result of the acquisition by the Group of apartments or commercial space in certain residential rental properties, the Group
holds voting rights in  the relevant owners’ management  companies (“OMCs”) associated with  those developments. Where the  Group
holds the majority of  those voting rights,  this entitles it,  inter alia, to control  the composition of  such OMCs’ boards  of
directors. However, as each of those OMCs is incorporated as a company limited by guarantee for the purpose of owning the  common
areas in residential or mixed-use developments, they are not intended to be traded for gains. I-RES does not consider these  OMCs
to be material for consolidation as the total assets of the OMCs is less than 1% of the Group’s total assets.

The total service  fees billed by  OMCs for the  year ended  31 December 2025  were €8.9 million  (2024 €9.5 million).  As at  31
December 2025, €0.1 million  was payable and €1.1  million was prepaid  by the Group to  the OMCs. As at  31 December 2024,  €0.1
million was payable and €1.0 million was prepaid by the Group to the OMCs.

24. Contingencies

At Beacon South Quarter, in addition to  the capital expenditure work that has  already been completed, water ingress works  were
identified in 2016 and I-RES is working with the Beacon South Quarter OMC to resolve these matters. A settlement has been reached
in the ongoing insurance claim with respect to the water ingress  and related damage between the OMC and the insurer. The  amount
of potential costs relating to these structural remediation works has been reflected in the valuation of the asset.

25. Commitments

As at 31 December 2025 there are no material commitments.

26. Earnings per Share

Earnings per share amounts are calculated  by dividing profit for the reporting  period attributable to ordinary shareholders  of
I-RES by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the reporting period.

For the year ended                                          31 December 2025 31 December 2024
Profit/(Loss) attributable to shareholders of I-RES (€'000)           49,752          (6,676)
Basic weighted average number of shares                          525,604,518      529,578,946
Diluted weighted average number of shares(1)(2)                  525,604,518      529,578,946
Basic Earnings/(Loss) per share (cents)                                  9.5            (1.3)
Diluted Earnings/(Loss) per share (cents)                                9.5            (1.3)

 (1) Diluted weighted average number of shares includes the additional shares resulting from dilution of the long-term incentive
plan options as of the reporting period date.

 (2) At 31 December 2025, nil options (31 December 2024: 4,596,499) were excluded from the diluted weighted average number of
ordinary shares because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

 

EPRA Earnings represents the earnings from the core operational activities (recurring items for I-RES). It is intended to provide
an indicator of the underlying performance  of the property portfolio and therefore  excludes all components not relevant to  the
underlying and recurring performance of the portfolio, including any revaluation results and results from the sale of properties.
EPRA Earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing EPRA Earnings for the reporting period attributable to shareholders of
I-RES by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the reporting period.

27. Net Asset Value per Share

In October 2019, EPRA introduced  three EPRA NAV metrics to  replace the then existing EPRA  NAV calculation that was  previously
being presented. The three EPRA NAV metrics are EPRA Net Reinstatement Value (“EPRA NRV’’), EPRA Net Tangible Asset (“EPRA  NTA”)
and EPRA Net Disposal Value (“EPRA NDV”). Each EPRA NAV metric  serves a different purpose. The EPRA NRV measure is to  highlight
the value of net assets on a long term basis. EPRA NTA assumes entities buy and sell assets, thereby crystallising certain levels
of deferred tax liability. Lastly,  EPRA NDV provides the  reader with a scenario where  deferred tax, financial instruments  and
certain other adjustments are calculated to the full extent of their liabilities. The table below presents the transition between
the Group’s shareholders’ equity derived from the consolidated financial statements and the various EPRA NAV.

 (1) Following changes to the Irish REIT legislation introduced in October  2019, if a REIT disposes of an asset of its  property
rental business and does not (i) distribute  the gross disposal proceeds to shareholders  by way of dividend; (ii) reinvest  them
into other assets of  its property rental  business (whether by acquisition  or capital expenditure)  within a three-year  window
(being one year before the sale and two years after it); or (iii) use them to repay debt specifically used to acquire, enhance or
develop the property sold, then the REIT will be liable to tax at a rate of 25% on 85% of the gross disposal proceeds, subject to
having sufficient distributable  reserves. For  the purposes  of EPRA  NTA, the Group  has assumed  any such  sales proceeds  are
reinvested within the required three-year window.

 (2) Deferred tax is assumed as per the IFRS statement of financial  position. To the extent that an orderly sale of the  Group’s
assets was undertaken over a period of several  years, during which time (i) the Group  remained a REIT; (ii) no new assets  were
acquired or sales proceeds reinvested; (iii) any developments completed were held for three years from completion; and (iv) those
assets were sold  at 31 December  2025 valuations, the  sales proceeds would  need to be  distributed to shareholders  by way  of
dividend within the required time  frame or else a tax  liability amounting to up to  25% of distributable reserves plus  current
unrealised revaluation gains could arise for the Group.

 (3) This is the purchaser  costs amount as provided  in the valuation  certificate. Purchasers’ costs consist  of items such  as
stamp duty on legal transfer and other purchase fees that may be incurred and which are deducted from the gross value in arriving
at the fair value of investment for IFRS purposes. Purchasers’ costs are in general estimated at 9.96% for commercial, 4.46%  for
residential apartment units and 12.46% for houses and duplexes.

“Average Monthly Rent (AMR)”

Actual monthly residential rents, net of vacancies, as at the stated date, divided by the total number of apartments owned in the
property;

“Basic Earnings per share (Basic EPS)”

Calculated by  dividing the  profit/(loss) for  the reporting  period attributable  to ordinary  shareholders of  the Company  in
accordance with IFRS by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the reporting period;

“EPRA”

The European Public Real Estate Association;

“EPRA Diluted EPS”

Calculated by dividing EPRA Earnings for the reporting period attributable to shareholders of the Company by the diluted weighted
average number of ordinary shares  outstanding during the reporting  period. EPRA Earnings measures  the level of income  arising
from operational activities. It is intended to provide an  indicator of the underlying income performance generated from  leasing
and management of the property portfolio,  while taking into account dilutive effects  and therefore excludes all components  not
relevant to the underlying  net income performance of  the portfolio, such as  unrealised changes in valuation  and any gains  or
losses on disposals of properties;

“EPRA Earnings”

EPRA Earnings is the profit after tax excluding revaluations and gains and losses on disposals and associated taxation (if any);

 

“Adjusted EPRA Earnings”

Represents EPRA Earnings adjusted for non-recurring costs to show the underlying EPRA Earnings of the Group;

“EPRA EPS”

Calculated by dividing EPRA Earnings for the reporting period attributable to shareholders of the Company by the weighted average
number of ordinary  shares outstanding  during the reporting  period. EPRA  Earnings measures the  level of  income arising  from
operational activities. It is intended to  provide an indicator of the underlying  income performance generated from leasing  and
management of the property portfolio and therefore excludes all components not relevant to the underlying net income  performance
of the portfolio, such as unrealised changes in valuation and any gains or losses on disposals of properties;

“Adjusted EPRA EPS”

on a long-term  basis. EPRA  NTA assumes  entities buy  and sell assets,  thereby crystallising  certain levels  of deferred  tax
liability. Any gains arising  from the sale  of a property  are expected either  to be reinvested  for growth or  85% of the  net
proceeds are distributed to the shareholders to  maintain the REIT status. Lastly, EPRA  NDV provides the reader with a  scenario
where deferred tax, financial instruments and certain other adjustments are calculated to the full extent of their liabilities;

“EPRA NAV per share”
