Model’s resilience further strengthening visibility for the current year
- Faced with the disruption linked to the consequences of the Covid-19 health crisis, Gecina suspended its guidance for the year in March 2020
- The signs of resilience seen during the second quarter, on Gecina’s core real estate markets, enable the Group to clarify its expectations for the current year, despite the uncertainty.
- Recurrent net income per share in 2020 is expected to range from €5.55 (adverse scenario) to €5.70 (close to the initial pre-Covid-19 assumption of €5.80) depending on changes in the economic situation and its potential impacts on Gecina’s activity during the second half of the year .
