GLOSSARY
Backlog or (backlog ) : for sales in the future state of completion (VEFA), it covers the undelivered reserved housing units for which the notarized bill of sale has not yet been signed and the undelivered reserved housing units for which the notarized bill of sale has been signed up to the portion not yet taken into revenue (on a 30% advanced program, 30% of the sales of a housing unit for which the notarized bill of sale has been signed is recorded in revenue, 70% are included in the backlog). The backlog is a summary at a given time that makes it possible to estimate the revenue remaining to be recognised in the coming months and thus reinforce the Group's forecasts - it being specified that there is an uncertain proportion of transformation of the backlog into revenue, particularly for orders not yet recorded.
BEFA: the building under completion consists of renting a building before it is built or restructured.
Working Capital Requirement (WCR): This arises from cash flow mismatches: disbursements and receipts corresponding to operating expenses and revenues required for the design, production and marketing of real estate programs. The resulting simplified expression for WCR is as follows: these are current assets (inventory + trade receivables + other operating receivables + advances received + prepaid income) less current liabilities (trade payables + tax and social security payables + other operating liabilities + prepaid expenses). The size of the WCR will depend in particular on the length of the operating cycle, the size and duration of storage of work-in-progress, the number of projects launched and the payment terms granted by suppliers or the profile of payment schedules granted to customers.
Free cash flow: free cash flow is equal to cash flow less net operating investments For the year.
Cash flow from operations: cash flow from operations after finance costs and taxes is equal to consolidated net income adjusted for the share in net income of associates, joint ventures and income from discontinued operations and calculated income and expenses.
Available for sale financial assets corresponds to cash and cash equivalents plus undrawn credit facilities
CDP : (formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project): Measuring the environmental impact of companies.
Dividend The dividend is the portion of the Company's net income distributed to shareholders. Its amount, proposed by the Board of Directors, is submitted to the shareholders for approval at the General Meeting. It is payable within a maximum of 9 months after the end of the financial year.

The number of ‘LEU’ is equal to the product (I) the number of housing units in a given programme for which the notarial deed of sale has been signed and (II) the ratio between the amount of land and construction expenditure incurred by the group on the said program and the total budget of the expenditures of the said program.
Gross margin : corresponds to sales less cost of sales. The cost of sales includes the price of land, related land costs and construction costs.
Commercial offer : it is represented by the sum of the stock of available for sale dwellings on the date in question, i.e. all dwellings not reserved at that date (net of unopened commercial tranches).

Orders (in value ) : they represent the value of real estate assets resulting from order contracts signed, including all taxes for a given period. They are mentioned net of the withdrawals noted during the said period.
Managed residences : managed residences, or service residences, are real estate complexes consisting of housing (houses or apartments) for residential use offering a minimum of services such as reception, supply of linen, cleaning and maintenance of housing as well as the provision of breakfast. There are several types of residences: student residences are apartment complexes, mostly studios equipped with a kitchenette and furnished, located near schools and universities and close to public transportation; Tourist residences, located in tourist areas with high potential, offer in addition to the usual services such as swimming pools, sports grounds, sometimes saunas, hammams, whirlpools, children’s club; business residences are an alternative to traditional hotels, composed of studios (about 80%) and 2-room apartments, located in the city center or near major business centers and systematically well served; finally, senior residences (also including residences for dependent or non-dependent elderly people - EHPAD), which make it possible to anticipate the aging of the population, accommodate people aged 55 and over; their clientele is mixed: renters and owners.

The number of housing equivalent units is determined by relating the surface area by type (business premises, shops, offices) to the average surface area of the housing units previously obtained.
Off balance sheet sales are contracts under which the seller immediately transfers to the buyer its land rights and ownership of the existing buildings. The future works become the property of the purchaser as they are executed; the purchaser is obliged to pay the price as the works progress. The seller retains the powers of the project owner until the work is accepted.
