The decrease in gross/net yield of the total portfolio is due to, on one hand, the appreciation of the office buildings in the Quatro portfolio as well as the Arts/Kunst 46 building thanks to new lettings and, on the other, exit of the Souverain/Vorst 23-25 buildings from the 'properties available for lease' section.
